Summary - FLAT 4A, HIGHLANDS MANSIONS, 117, PEVENSEY ROAD TN38 0LZ
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Sea views to Beachy Head from living room balcony
Top-floor two-bedroom maisonette with far-reaching sea views to Beachy Head and three private balconies, offered chain-free on a long 900-year lease with an 8% share of freehold. The living room opens to a south-facing balcony through full-height glazed doors, flooding the space with daylight. Both bedrooms have en-suite shower rooms and their own balcony access, making the layout unusually private and flexible for sharers or guests.
Practical strengths include a recent full re-roof, modest annual maintenance (£1,500), very low council tax (Band A), and direct access to Warrior Square mainline station for fast links to London. The apartment is presented in a neutral, modern style with engineered timber floors and ready-to-move-into finishes, suiting buyers who want a low-maintenance city-with-sea pied-à-terre or a rental investment with strong tenant appeal.
Notable drawbacks are factual and important: heating is by electric room heaters and the property uses electricity as its main fuel (no gas central heating). The EPC is rated E. Internal rooms are average in size and sloping ceilings/restricted head heights in the mansard upper level may limit some furniture layouts. The wider area is recorded as very deprived, which may affect resale or rental yields in the short term.
Overall this maisonette offers exceptional sea views, private outdoor space and a secure long lease — attractive to first-time buyers seeking a central seaside home or investors after a well-presented, low-management flat. Be aware of the electric heating, EPC rating and local socio-economic factors when assessing running costs and returns.
