Chain-free one-bedroom flat near Kemp Town seafront with period character and update potential.
Oblique sea and garden views from bow-fronted lounge
A bright one-bedroom second-floor apartment just off Kemp Town seafront, ideal for a first-time buyer or buyer seeking a compact seaside pied-à-terre. The bow-fronted lounge/diner captures oblique sea and garden views and retains period character such as high ceilings and traditional windows. The separate kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom provide a straightforward, practical layout across approximately 460 sq ft.
Sold chain-free and with gas central heating, the flat is ready to occupy yet offers clear scope for cosmetic updating to increase value. Its location puts beaches, cafés and frequent transport within easy reach, while fast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit remote working or streaming.
Important practical points are set out plainly: this is a leasehold flat with about 88 years remaining, a service charge of approximately £1,336pa and ground rent around £374pa. The property sits in a very deprived neighbourhood with very high recorded crime levels — buyers should factor local safety and insurance considerations into their plans. Council tax Band A is a low running cost that helps offset other outgoings.
Overall, this compact converted flat offers seaside character and hands-on potential in a central Kemp Town location. It's a sensible match for a first-time buyer wanting immediate seafront access or an investor seeking a city-centre rental, provided they accept the lease length and communal costs.
