4 Bedroom Detached House For Sale In Hove

 GUIDE PRICE £1,000,000 - £1,250,000

Firmly nestled in the sought after Hove Park area, Lloyd Road is a quiet residential street set between Shirley Road and Hove Park Road. A rare opportunity, this much-loved home has remained within the same family for over fifty years, with the current owners being only the second custodians of this handsome 1930s mock Tudor property. Now, as it approaches its centenary, it is ready to begin its next chapter and offers exciting scope for modernisation and enhancement.

The ground floor is currently arranged with a generous kitchen diner, two reception rooms, a conservatory and a useful lean-to providing storage or workshop space. There is also a versatile study which could serve as a ground floor bedroom, along with a shower room. Garages sit to either side of the property, offering excellent storage or potential for further development. Subject to the necessary consents, there is clear opportunity to reconfigure, extend or open up the space to create a truly bespoke family home.

The kitchen, finished in a cheerful yellow, offers ample room for dining and benefits from a larder store and side access from the garage through to lean-to. The living room, with its characterful wood panelling, enjoys direct access out to the south westerly facing garden, creating a lovely connection between inside and out.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, along with a family bathroom and separate WC, both retaining charming period pastel fittings. The property offers further potential as the property could potentially be expanded with an additional storey above the kitchen & living room all subject to necessary consents. From the upper floor, there are far reaching views stretching down towards the coast.

Outside, the substantial south westerly garden is a true highlight. Lovingly maintained over the years, it features mature planting, established borders and trees that provide year-round interest and privacy. A large walled patio sits directly off the living space and conservatory, offering an ideal setting for alfresco dining and entertaining. To the rear, a generous shed provides practical storage for garden equipment.

To the front, a privet hedge and a mix of evergreen and perennial planting create a welcoming approach. Driveways on either side of the house lead to the two garages, offering excellent parking, storage or further potential for adaptation.

Sitting near to the green open spaces of Hove Park there is an abundance of outdoor facilities close at hand ranging from tennis courts, children’s playground and bowling green to a café, picnic area and working model railway.

A Waitrose superstore and Tesco Metro are within walking distance as well as the shops and amenities of Seven Dials, Church Road and Goldstone Villas all being easily accessible. Hove’s famous seafront is just past Church Road and is the perfect place to spend those summer afternoons.
