This SUBSTANTIAL 5 bedroom bay fronted END OF TERRACE house occupies a larger than average plot on a popular residential street in the SOUGHT AFTER Hove area. The property retains a number of attractive PERIOD FEATURES and offers SPACIOUS ACCOMMODATION throughout. The ground floor includes a generous OPEN PLAN kitchen/breakfast room, along with a bright conservatory overlooking the garden. Externally, the property benefits from a lawned rear garden, off-street parking, and 2 GARAGES, providing excellent storage and parking options. Due to the generous plot size, the property also offers excellent potential to extend or further develop (subject to the necessary planning consents). Viewings are highly recommended.

What the owner says:
"When my wife and I bought this property in 1988 we moved only a short distance from a house of similar vintage nearer to Seven Dials. At the time we were looking for property with off-street parking and a larger garden, both of which are like gold dust in this area. So when 69 Lyndhurst Road came up for sale we jumped at the chance. This property is unique in the area, in that no. 71 was never built (the property now numbered 71 was originally no. 73). So what we had was essentially a double plot.
It was originally part of a market garden which also occupied part of what is now Silverdale Avenue. When we bought the house we did not consider the possibility of developing the plot, but I now realise that that is a significant attraction.
This is a great property to bring up a family, as we did. Nearby schools and recreational facilities are very good, while the Charter Medical Centre is 5 minutes walk away. The Palmeira pub is very good and only about 3 minutes walk (although not close enough ever to be a nuisance). Sussex County cricket ground is just over the Road from the Palmeira. I will be sorry to leave this house which holds so many happy memories but unfortunately my wife passed way just over 3 years ago and in truth the house is much too big for me now."
