A compact one-bedroom third-floor seafront retirement flat offering direct sea views and convenient communal facilities. The open-plan lounge/kitchen and bedroom both face the English Channel, delivering strong coastal outlooks and natural light for an easy, low-activity lifestyle. The building includes communal lounge, laundrette, on-site concierge and access to the Sackville Bistro — useful social spaces for over-50s.
This is a leasehold retirement apartment with a relatively short lease (circa 63 years remaining). That lease length, combined with a service charge of about £3,950pa and ground rent of £150pa, may limit mortgage options and will be a material consideration for most buyers. Heating is electric storage heaters; walls are likely solid brick with no added insulation, so energy performance and running costs should be checked.
The property is offered chain-free and sits in a central seafront location within walking distance of shops, cafés and Bexhill station. The flat is small (around 377 sq ft) and will suit a downsizer or retired buyer seeking easy access to seafront life and communal social amenities rather than someone needing spacious accommodation. Viewings are recommended to judge the size, condition and to confirm suitability for lending.
Important negatives: short lease term that may restrict mortgage lending; high annual service charge; electric storage heating and likely solid-wall construction may mean higher energy bills and scope for improvement. These issues are factual and should be weighed against the rare seafront position and communal services on offer.
