Holland Rd by the Sea

There's so much to fall in love with this gorgeous family home ... let's get into the details! It's so rare to have a lovely, sizeable family home in the heart of a gorgeous vibrant part of the city that's so close to the sea and Hove Lawns - yet is in a quiet residential street. Positioned on the southern stretch of Holland Road, close to the sea and comfortably away from Western Road. What that means is we have a peaceful oasis just a short hop to the beach and the restaurants, bars, cafes and vibrancy of the heart of Hove!

Holland Road is wide and stepping out of this beautiful living space onto the pavement, the sea glistens just a two minute walk down the road. The ample in/out front driveway can accommodate a number of cars. Off road parking in central Hove - what a joy! What else do we have on the outside? Two balconies facing east and west. The west balcony is a great size and wonderful for a sundowner or two. The low maintenance, landscaped rear garden has a pizza oven and a double open fireplace for toasty late night entertainment. Perfect planning provides pungent planting and superb screening! It also has multiple seating areas and can host the most glamorous of gatherings for family and friends.

Let's venture inside... The entrance hall is both broad and grand - an indicator of what is to come. Wooden floors and decorative architraves abound leading to two lovely east facing reception rooms. They're a fabulous size, both with working open fires and opulent marble fireplaces. How they are both enjoyed is up to you: family rooms, music rooms, reading rooms, plenty of options - if a ground floor bedroom is required either of them would make for a great option as a 6th bedroom.

Moving along the hall we have a handy (4th) WC and across from that is a wonderfully spacious Utility / Boot room. It can handle the biggest of family laundry needs along with housing all manner of the family's "stuff". The side door access is great for bringing in muddy boots and dogs! It can easily store extra appliances and the wall of wardrobes hides away all that needs hiding! Deeper to the rear of the house we enter the open plan kitchen diner area. The long quartz worktop flows inro a breakfast bar giving a great space to sit up and talk to chef. The units are well crafted in a shaker style and incorporate all (staying) appliances: Triple ovens, Large Fridge Freezer and Dishwasher.

There are great views of the garden from the kitchen windows so little ones can be kept an eye on. The dining area is substantial and can host the biggest of family get togethers. Guests can sit in comfort before dining in either the soft area adjacent or in warmer times, with the bifold doors open, the terrace can accommodate guests al fresco.

Upstairs to the first floor let's go to the master bedroom suite first. It covers the entire depth of the first floor and as the photo demonstrates not even the biggest of super king beds and a raft of freestanding furniture can cover the large wooden floored area. The ensuite bathroom is similarly HUGE! Freestanding bath tub, separate rainfall shower, storage for the largest of towel collections! Back across the landing we have two generously proportioned double bedrooms. The southern one has those double doors to the large south and west balcony.

Up the stairs we go again to the second floor, which was built in the original design - so sits perfectly in keeping with the grand design. Off of the butterfly landing to the guest suite, a large double bedroom with its own bath/shower room. The other side of the landing has two further double bedrooms which can be used as bedrooms or for more versatile options. The second floor can take care of guests or older children who value a bit more privacy.

Should this magnificent family home not offer you enough space - there's always the option to go up into the large undeveloped loft!
