Extensive Grade II Listed Four Bedroom Apartment in Historic Hove Square with an Enviable Amount of Space. Sitting on the third floor of one of Hove’s most prestigious terraces, with its distinctive stucco facades, cast iron railings and Doric porches, the immense proportions and versatility of this elegant apartment are rivalled only by its sought-after location. Set within the grandeur of an iconic Regency square on the third floor of a beautiful Grade II listed 1850s townhouse, tall ceilings, period cornicing and original fireplaces all combine to create a breath-taking home with a huge amount of potential. As part of the Brunswick Town Conservation Area, Palmeira Square has been described as “one of the finest examples of Regency and early Victorian planning and architecture in the country”. Built during the same period as the terraces surrounding London’s Hyde Park, its scale and style mark the transition from Regency to Victorian Italianate. Leasehold with a long lease, residents of 3 Palmeira Square benefit from an original 1920s lift. In More Detail Arranged over two floors, a commodious hallway leads you through an expansive yet easy flowing layout, instantly creating a sense of the sheer amount of space that this central Hove home has to offer. Tastefully and sympathetically presented throughout, the outstanding proportions of each room provide ample possibilities for you to put your own stamp on the interior design and create a bespoke family home tailored for today’s lifestyle. Inside Beautifully lit by a row of tall sash windows, offering oblique sea views and looking out onto the gardens of Palmeira Square, a spacious main reception room is the real heart of this welcoming home. Providing an instant wow factor, a distinguished fireplace creates a traditional focal point, while period cornicing encompasses the tall ceiling adding to the sense of height and space.

The period features and original fireplaces continue in both the separate dining room, with its magnificent setting for formal meals and entertaining, as well as in the adjacent study where full height shelving accommodates even the largest of book collections. A wide sash window in the large kitchen/breakfast room offers views of i360 adding a contemporary backdrop to the traditional design of the wood cabinets which wrap around to form a central breakfast bar. Leading down to the master bedroom, the impressive hallway opens onto a library area whose dual aspect mezzanine gallery provides an ideal spot for a further study or home office. A sash window provides the chance to enjoy a sea view while you work and the warm hues of full height stained glass windows open to reveal a panoramic rooftop vista. Elegant blue tones add a calm and relaxing feel to the spacious master bedroom where a further fireplace, large multi-pane sash window and period cornicing all remind you once more of the charm and character of this late Regency building. A wealth of fitted wardrobes add to the wonderful amount of storage that this home has to offer and a deep walk-in cupboard provides ample potential to become a contemporary en suite bathroom. Beneath a wide stained glass window with its design of Brighton Pavilion, the wide hallway steps down to the lower level where three additional bedrooms provide ideal family accommodation and ample dual space potential. Arranged in a classic tile setting the family bathroom provides a touch of luxury with a curved spa bath and separate walk-in shower, while a further shower room adds a more contemporary feel with its sleek glass screen.

What the Owner Says “As soon as we walked into this apartment we knew it was going to be our home. It was just, wow, this is it! The sense of space is amazing, we knew that it would be the perfect fit for our belongings and could see our books on the walls. The main reception is our favourite room. We spend most of our time there and you can look out onto the gardens from the sash windows. It’s such a lovely flat and we’ve certainly enjoyed living here for the past 16 years. The convenience of the location is something we’ll miss. There are constant bus services available that can take you anywhere you need to go, from the University in one direction to Worthing in the other.
