Summary - Flat 3, 44 South Street BN21 4XB
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Characterful two-bedroom flat in heart of South Street — ideal central buy or rental.
Two double bedrooms with high ceilings and attractive period features
Prime central South Street location near seafront, shops and station
Approx. 106 years remaining on lease — verify with solicitor
Service charge stated as £1,200pa; buyer should confirm exact costs
No private garden; outdoor space likely limited or rear only
On-street permit parking only, no allocated parking
Area shows very high crime rates and local deprivation indicators
Solid brick construction, likely no cavity insulation (pre-2002 glazing)
Set over split levels above a prominent South Street shopfront, this two-bedroom flat combines Victorian character with practical modern comforts. High ceilings, bay windows and original period features give the principal rooms strong visual appeal, while a bright living area and fitted kitchen suit both occupancy and rental use.
The property is offered with approximately 106 years remaining on the lease and a stated service charge of £1,200 per annum; buyers should verify lease and charges during conveyancing. Gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002) and mains boiler/radiator heating provide everyday convenience, though walls are solid brick and likely uninsulated.
Location is a key draw: central South Street position places cafés, shops, buses, the seafront and Eastbourne mainline station within easy walking distance, supporting strong rental demand. On-street permit parking is available, but there is no private garden and outdoor space appears limited.
Important considerations: the local area shows significant deprivation indicators and very high crime statistics — factors that affect owner-occupier lifestyle and some buyer/lender decisions. The building is a converted mixed-use Victorian property, so potential purchasers should allow for maintenance and confirm communal/service arrangements and any structural or refurbishment needs.
