<p>Take up residence in this beauty and you will be in fine company! History lesson time: The Sassoon family, who were known as the: "Rothschilds of the East" loved this property! Edward Elias Sassoon lived here from 1891 to 1893. He was reported to have been enthralled by the view from our wonderful 1st floor bay window, and it's easy to see why. It provides glorious captivating views out to sea. And just to end the history lesson: He became Sir Edward Elias Sassoon, 2nd Baronet of Bombay..... you're welcome!<br/></p><p>Third Avenue stands out as one of the finest of what was originally titled the "West Brighton Estate" (now referred to as 'the Avenues'). Third Avenue was sold largely as plots to builders, so there are tremendous variations in styles and architecture. The Avenues are considered to be amongst the most desirable and acclaimed roads in Hove. Wonderful architecture aside, the location is just superb. The promenade, Hove Lawns and the Sea on your door step. whilst up the road there's a wonderful array of coffee shops, restaurants, bars and boutique shops on Church Road. Great commuter links, easy public transport and perfect for a stroll on the front.<br/></p><p>What's special about this lovely living space? The buildings entrance is grand and imposing. Once inside, the hallway has fabulous high ceilings and lovely period features - a clear demonstration of it's opulent origins. To the flat itself. It is a serene, open space with large sash windows and high ceilings. The first floor front rooms are the finest in these Victorian villas, with the largest and grandest of windows allowing floods of natural light. Facing West/ South West, the bay window is a lovely area to sit, read, chat or just be enthralled by the waves. Sir Edward wasn't wrong.<br/></p><p>The living room is a generous size and comfortably houses the contemporary open plan kitchen. High ceiling, a large fireplace and a wonderful large bay window make for a fabulous living space. The shared balcony faces west and is accessed by the bay window. It is another lovely area to sit and enjoy in warmer times. The west facing bedroom has a built in cupboard.</p><p>Adjacent to the bedroom is the bathroom, a contemporary recently refurbished shower room. </p><p>The residents (as freeholders) have put a restriction regarding holiday lets. They wish to preserve the spirit and nature of the building and decided against permitting holiday / Air B&B lets. Great news if you like a more predictable neighbourly scenario! </p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p>
