This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in Rye’s Conservation Area offers low-maintenance, single-level living suited to downsizers or buyers seeking a town-centre base. The open-plan living/kitchen is generous for a one-bedroom and benefits from attractive arched windows that bring natural light into the principal space. Fitted kitchen appliances and an EPC B rating keep running costs reasonable, while fast ultrafast broadband and excellent mobile coverage support modern working and leisure needs.
Externally the property sits in a small gated courtyard with an allocated off-street parking space — a valuable convenience in a historic town centre where on-street parking is limited. Local amenities, cultural life and rail links to Ashford and Brighton are all within easy reach, making this a well-positioned option for those wanting to be at the heart of Rye.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with 86 years remaining, an annual ground rent of £200 and a communal service charge of £276.44 for the year shown. There is no private garden or significant external amenity space, and the local crime rate is recorded as above average — factors to weigh for personal security and long-term mortgageability.
Overall this is a practical, well-presented apartment for someone prioritising a central, low-maintenance home with good transport links and modern connectivity. The property will particularly suit a downsizer or a couple wanting a comfortable town base, while investors should consider lease length and ongoing charges when modelling returns.
