Westbourne Street | Hove | East Sussex
Seller Insight "We've lived here for 4 years and love it so much we're staying in the area. The only reason that we're moving is because we're landscape gardeners and need our home to have a garage/workshop for all our equipment. We've loved the friendly feel of the Poets Corner community, the nice pubs and the parks. We bought our house mainly due to the larger than usual garden which is sunny all day long in summer."
