Connaught Terrace, Hove

This stunning mid-terrace Victorian house which has been transformed by its current owners, who intended to stay here a long while. As soon as you enter through the front door, you will appreciate the transformation. The house has been extended to provide wonderful reception spaces on the ground floor. At the front, there is an elegant living room, with a bay window and a fireplace in which stands a Henley wood-burning stove. Solid oak flooring extends through the living room into the dining room and hall, giving continuity to the space. Stepping through into the kitchen/breakfast room, you find a stunning contemporary room, which has been created by extending and using the side return to expand to the full width of the house. On one side of the room, there are sleek white units, with gorgeous Silestone worktops in which is set a double sink with a kettle tap. A Bosch dishwasher is integrated and there is no need for a washing machine here, as there is a separate utility room on the first floor. On the wall above the worksurfaces, there is a single, long, floating shelf to show off glassware. In the centre of the room, an island houses the induction hob and on the other side of the room, there is a fantastic sweep of full-height units, giving more storage space than any chef could dream of and removing all the clutter from view. Two Neff slide-and-hide ovens are also housed here. This room has underfloor heating and the floor is laid with porcelain tiles, which continue through into the patio garden. The garden is west-facing and when the bi-fold doors are fully opened, it really does become another room which you can wander into from the kitchen. The garden has been designed with raised beds and has a lovely brick wall around it.

The stairs to the first floor have a glass balustrade and lead to a half landing from where you can access the utility room, which has space for a washing machine and a dryer. The gas central heating boiler is also in this room. At the back of the house is the main bathroom. Tiled with beautiful marble, this room has a white suite with a double-ended bath and a separate shower with a thermostatic, dual-head shower. There is also underfloor heating. At the front of the house is a fantastic master bedroom, with oak flooring. There is both a bay window and an additional single sash. This light and spacious room has the luxury of a dressing room adjacent, which could equally be reinstated as a double bedroom. On the top floor are two further bedrooms and a large shower room with underfloor heating. Throughout the house, the windows are dressed with white shutters and there are raw metal column radiators. The house has a security alarm and also mains connected, interlinked, smoke alarms. Every detail has been considered and this is a beautiful and practical home, ready to welcome its new owners.
