This ultra-luxurious family home sits in the seaside city of Hove, a ten-minute stroll from the beach. Following the promenade, you’ll be at Brighton’s i360 lookout in twenty minutes on foot. Or, drive to the centre of Brighton in five minutes. The home itself is in the style of a Victorian villa, with symmetrical bay windows flooding the place with light inside. There’s a bench up on the balcony, overlooking the garden for a quiet moment. The garden itself faces south, so there’s plenty of sunlight in the evening. Perfect if you’re planning to take dinner on the terrace, or sit on the swing seat with something bubbly. Stepping into the living room is like crossing the threshold into a 19th-century drawing room with its grand piano, sparkling chandelier and carriage clock above the mantle. A wood-burning stove can crackle away in the evening for a bit of atmosphere and floor-to-ceiling bay windows let the sunshine stream in. Double doors lead to the kitchen, where there’s dining for the whole group and an additional seating area around a big TV. Upstairs, bedrooms are super plush and spacious.

About Hove
Brighton's more laid-back sibling, upmarket Hove, is known more for its Regency architecture, stylish mews and stunning mansions than its close neighbour's hedonism. Colourful beach huts line its stretch of pebble beach, and the seafront is backed by Western Lawns with its skatepark and small lagoon. Enjoy a craft beer at one of the area’s stylish pubs or do some people-watching in the array of cafes. The family-friendly Hove Museum...
