Blackthorn Close,

Did you ever think that your very first home could actually be a freehold semi-detached house with its own 50’ rear garden? Well, it can with this two bedroom semi-detached beauty. Close to Sainsbury’s and the A27, with off-street parking, as well as two double bedrooms and a large living dining room, this is a peach of a first time home for anyone looking to get onto the property ladder and take a young family with them.

Wilbury Road,
Hove
This bright westerly aspect top floor flat is newly modernised and improved – and it shows! From the luxury bathroom to the refitted kitchen with brand new appliances, including fridge, freezer, washer/dryer and dishwasher, right through to the new floors and smoothly finished walls of this one bedroom apartment.

Trafalgar Close,
Peacehaven
In the centre of Peacehaven, close to the shops, buses and the glorious seafront, is this really rather spacious one bedroom flat, with a living area measuring in excess of 19’ ready for you to start entertaining chez vous. At such an incredible price, you’d be hard pressed to find somewhere with this much space to stretch out in, with a double bedroom and plenty of storage too. Included in the property is residents’ parking, making it the perfect first base on any prospective property mogul’s empire.
