Summary - Flat 2, 8 Enys Road BN21 2DH
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Character one-bedroom flat with balconies, parking and long lease near station.
Allocated off-street parking space to the rear
A bright, characterful one-bedroom hall-floor apartment set within a Victorian terrace in Upperton, a short walk from Eastbourne town centre and the mainline station. The impressive bay-windowed lounge with high ceilings and a feature fireplace opens through French doors to a front balcony; the double bedroom also accesses a second balcony. A refitted kitchen and bathroom, gas central heating and double glazing provide modern comfort within a period shell.
Practical benefits include an allocated off-street parking space, a share of freehold and an exceptionally long lease (c.900 years). The flat is an efficient city-base for first-time buyers seeking character and convenient transport links, or a buy-to-let let option given local rental demand.
Notable points to consider: internal floorspace is compact for a one-bedroom (average-sized overall), and the building’s original solid brick walls mean limited built-in insulation (typical for pre-1900 construction). Service charges are around £1,600 per year; council tax is low. The neighbourhood is lively and cosmopolitan with student and diverse family communities, which may suit those wanting an active urban location but be less ideal for buyers seeking quiet suburbia.
An internal inspection is recommended to assess room proportions and storage; the flat offers genuine period character with straightforward scope for cosmetic updating where desired.
