The Newtown Road redevelopment in Hove represents the transformation of a disused car dealership site into a high-quality mixed-use scheme, designed to contribute to the ongoing regeneration around Hove Station. The £26 million project introduces 148 one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments spread across two principal blocks, each featuring generous ground floor office space, alongside a third four-storey block that provides 8 maisonettes. The development has been carefully planned to provide a strong street frontage, activate the ground floor with commercial use, and integrate much-needed residential accommodation within this rapidly growing neighbourhood.
Designed by Yelo Architects, the scheme combines contemporary design with sustainable features, including landscaped communal areas, rooftop allotments, and green amenity spaces to foster community living. Located just a short walk from Hove Station, residents benefit from excellent connectivity while enjoying modern apartments built around shared courtyards. The development reflects Brighton & Hove’s push for sustainable urban density and mixed-use vibrancy, offering a balance of workspace and living space within a well-connected city quarter.
