Summary - CROMARTY COURT FLAT 5 SEDLESCOMBE GARDENS ST LEONARDS-ON-SEA TN38 0TQ
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Long lease, garage and communal grounds—ideal starter home or buy-to-let.
Chain-free first-floor flat with share of freehold
This first-floor two-bedroom flat offers a practical entry into St Leonards-on-Sea with a rare long lease and share of freehold. The lounge is bright with large double-glazed windows overlooking communal greenspace, and the layout includes a separate fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms and a bathroom. An allocated garage and well-kept communal grounds add useful storage and parking that many flats lack.
The property is presented in neutral, serviceable condition and would suit a first-time buyer wanting move-in-ready accommodation or an investor seeking a straightforward let. Electric room heaters and double glazing provide basic comfort; minimal cosmetic updating would modernise the interior and could add value.
Be aware of a few practical drawbacks: heating is electric (room heaters), broadband speeds are reported slow, and local crime levels are above average. The building dates from the late 1960s–1970s and appears to have cavity walls without added insulation, which may affect running costs and future upgrade needs.
Financially the position is straightforward: a lengthy remaining lease (circa 900 years), share of freehold, modest ground rent and below-average service charge. For buyers prioritising long-term ownership security and low immediate maintenance needs, this is a sensible, affordable option in a convenient location close to Silverhill amenities and transport links.
