Kings House Hove

Kings House is a prominent Grade II listed building located on Hove Seafront and is the most prominent listed building in the Avenues Conservation area . Built in the 1870’s, this was the key building in a larger Victorian residential master plan for the Avenues area, set to attract wealthy Victorian Londoner’s to this seaside location. Over time the building has subsequently been used as the Princes Hotel, WWII Navy training base and office headquarters for SEEBoard & Brighton and Hove City Council.

The building was sympathetically designed with its original 19th Century form in mind. Many of its period architectural features have been replicated or reinstated, returning the building to its original use as a luxury residential building. Spread over seven substantial floors, it contains 69 prestigious one, two and three bedroom apartments which provide the same sense of grandeur envisioned by the original Victorian architects.

The History

Standing proud on Hove Lawns for almost 150 years, Kings House has had a long and varied history during that period. Leaning into this history, Rego Property commissioned a short History Video so prospective purchasers could fully appreciate the past of such an iconic building.

Piers Taylor

Working on refurbishment projects of this stature, it is important that prospective purchasers get brought on a journey as the building evolves and takes shape. To give purchasers a unique way of engaging with the building, Rego Property commissioned Piers Taylor to host some short videos, where he could narrate the plans for the building and level of finish proposed. This marketing strategy proved very successful and helped deliver strong sales numbers in the early stage of the construction phase of the development.

Gallery

Each apartment has been carefully designed with the owner in mind. In general, the living accommodation has been provided to the front (south) of the building, to enable full enjoyment of the expansive and panoramic sea views, with the bedrooms located to the rear of the building.

Location: Brighton & Hove

Holding a corner position within the Avenues Conservation Area, the apartments look out over Hove Lawns, promenade and beach with uninterrupted sea views above the concertina roofs of the city’s iconic beach huts.
