DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY BH2024/00797

The property forms part of a parade of shops and flats within a popular residential area, close to bus routes into Brighton and Hove City Centres, with local schools and further shops nearby in Hangleton Road.

PLANNING PERMISSION HAS BEEN GRANTED to convert two shop units into 2 x one bedroom self-contained flats. Each ground floor flat is to have a courtyard garden with an additional communal garden for the upper floor flats, plus bike and bin stores for all. The self-contained one bedroom flats subject to this approved application provide the following accommodation:
No.90: Bedroom/Living/Kitchen and Dining/Shower room 50m2
No.92: Bedroom/Living/Kitchen and Dining/Shower room 50m2

WHAT THE OWNER SAYS:

"The two flats have been very popular with renters during the 20 or so years I have been letting them. The feedback from tenants, in addition to being keen on the location, has been very positive about the spaciousness of the flats. When the communal garden and stores are built the existing flats will then have the benefit of some outside space."

    Why choose Maslen Estate Agents in East Sussex? Choosing the right agent Whether you are buying or selling a property, choosing the right estate agent is key to ensuring the process runs smoothly. There are many agents to choose from and it’s important to choose a knowledgeable estate agent that can give you sound, relevant advice. Each property move brings with it different challenges, so you need an estate agent you can talk to when you want to and trust you’ll get open, honest advice. Honest, professional guidance and support Here at Maslen Estate Agents we will be with you every step of the way. From our first viewing and valuation of your property, through to achieving the maximum possible sale price, we will give you honest, professional guidance and support. Our enthusiastic, experienced team of negotiators are extremely knowledgeable about the local housing market and how to best market your property. We provide honest feedback after every viewing, and ensure you are kept fully informed at every stage of your sale. Independent mortgage advice you can trust To ease the process further, we also provide independent mortgage advice from the whole market, including remortgaging. In addition we can arrange buildings and contents insurance, mortgage payment protection and life and critical illness cover. We don’t charge a fee for these services. Download our handy guide to homebuying and mortgages here. We offer the best customer service When choosing an estate agent, don’t make a decision based purely on commission fee. It’s tempting to appoint an agent just because they offer a low commission rate, but this is a false economy. Other factors to consider are local knowledge, expertise and levels of customer service. Look at an estate agent’s sales results; you’ll be able to get an idea of which agents concentrate on getting the best possible sale price rather than just a quick sale. Which means you’ll get the best customer service and a better price for your property, making more money overall. Our professional track record speaks for itself We are one of only three estate agents in Brighton & Hove that has achieved membership of the ‘Buy With Confidence’ scheme, established by Trading Standards and one of the first in the city to become licensed members of the National Association of Estate Agents (NAEA), adhering to a strict code of practice and levels of staff training and qualifications. This is also reflected by our 12 years with ‘Investors In People’ (IIP) status and membership of The Property Ombudsman. We were also winners of the Brighton & Hove Estate Agents Award for Raising Professional Standards 2010.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
