A rare freehold seaside guest house in Eastbourne’s cultural quarter, 50 metres from the promenade and facing Devonshire Park. The Victorian townhouse houses twelve ensuite rooms recently refurbished to a high standard, many with sea views, and comes with a spacious ground-floor owner’s apartment — an operational setup that suits an owner-operator or investor seeking an established business.
The business has traded under the same ownership since 2007 and includes all trade fixtures and a provided inventory. Public transport, theatres, galleries, restaurants and the tennis centre are all within easy walking distance, making the property attractive to short-stay leisure and event guests. The current rateable value is £16,500.
Practical considerations: the plot is small with on-street parking only, broadband speeds are average, and the neighbourhood records higher local crime levels — factors that may affect some guests and operations. No flood risk is recorded. The property suits buyers looking for a going concern with immediate trading potential and room for targeted marketing or operational improvements.
