Situated within the prestigious Willett Estate Conservation Area, the charming Eaton Gardens offers an enviable location just moments from Hove Station and the vibrant amenities of Church Road. Eaton Garden Mansions stands as a striking example of Victorian grandeur, showcasing hallmark features such as imposing proportions, sweeping staircases, a classic yellow brick façade, intricate stained glass and a beautifully preserved traditional passenger lift. Designed in the 1880s by the renowned Harry Bell Measures; celebrated for his work on numerous London Underground stations, this impressive villa reflects the architectural heritage of its era, created while Measures was serving as in-house architect for William Willett.
Elegantly appointed, the apartment is accessed directly via the passenger lift, which opens into a generous and welcoming hallway that also benefits from additional stair access. The living space is thoughtfully arranged in an open-plan layout, seamlessly combining the kitchen, dining, and lounge areas. Dual balconies at either end invite an abundance of natural light and create a fluid connection between indoor and outdoor living, ideal for enjoying sunshine from morning to evening as it arcs across the building.
The double-aspect lounge features an East-facing balcony accessed through characterful arched doors, while the kitchen and dining area boast sleek contemporary cabinetry in a matte grey finish and are fully equipped with integrated appliances. From here, the West-facing balcony offers captivating sea views, perfect for taking in a stunning sunset.
Accommodation comprises two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal suite benefits from a stylish en-suite shower room and its own private balcony. The second bedroom is generous in size and is served by a separate guest bathroom, completing the layout of this exceptional residence.
Sitting between Eaton Road and Cromwell Road, Eaton Garden Mansions is ideally located for the bustling cafe culture, shops, bars and restaurants of Church Road. George Street and Blatchington Road are only a short walk away, while a gentle stroll down The Drive and Grand Avenue takes you to Hove Lawns and seafront. The green open spaces of Hove Park and St. Ann's Well Gardens are within walking distance and for cricket fans the County ground is just around the corner.
There is also a large parking space to the rear of the building.
Hove mainline station is less than a quarter of a mile away and provides convenient commuter links to London, while regular bus services to the centre of Brighton, outlying areas and up to Devil's Dyke are close at hand.
Local schools include St Andrew's C of E Primary School, St Christopher's School, Hove Junior School, Brighton & Hove High School, The Drive Prep School, Brighton & Hove Prep, Cottesmore St Mary's Primary School and bhasvic.
