A compact ground-floor studio in Upperton, Eastbourne, offered at auction with a low asking price. The open-plan living space, separate kitchen and bathroom suit a first-time buyer seeking an affordable entry or an investor after a lettable, low-maintenance unit. Communal gardens and resident parking add useful outdoor space and convenience for a small car.
Buyers should note significant lease and sale considerations: just 59 years remaining on the lease may make mortgage lending difficult or impossible for some buyers. The property is being sold via a modern auction method with a non-refundable reservation fee (minimum £6,600) plus other buyer charges — these costs sit on top of the hammer price and affect overall affordability.
Ongoing costs include a service charge around £2,000 per year and a small ground rent of £70. The flat is small (approximately 306 sq ft) and likely needs cosmetic updates; purchasers should budget for refurbishment and confirm services and condition via survey. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and nearby transport links improve its appeal for commuters or renters.
This is a straightforward, affordable opportunity for those who can purchase with cash or secure specialist lending. It’s best suited to a buyer who understands leasehold limitations, accepts auction costs, and is prepared to manage light updating or to let the flat as a rental.
