This newly converted ground-floor two-double-bedroom flat sits in a period corner building within easy walking distance of Eastbourne’s seafront. The accommodation offers a contemporary open-plan kitchen/living area, modern bathroom, built-in storage cupboards and a small private patio — well suited to a first-time buyer or couple seeking a low-maintenance coastal base.
Practical strengths include a share of freehold with a long effective lease (approx. 124 years), excellent mobile signal and a compact, efficient 678 sq ft layout. The finish throughout is contemporary, so little immediate internal work should be required. Local shops, cafés and transport links are all close by, and the beach is within easy walking distance.
Buyers should note material drawbacks honestly: the neighbourhood records very high crime levels and the surrounding area is classified as very deprived, which may affect sense of security and resale. Broadband speeds are slow and external elevations show some mould and wear around windows — external maintenance may be needed. There is no private garden or dedicated off-street parking; on-street parking is the local norm.
Overall, the property represents an attractively priced entry into Eastbourne’s seaside market with modern interiors and secure share-of-freehold ownership. It will particularly suit buyers prioritising location, low internal maintenance and coastal access, but those sensitive to local crime statistics, slow broadband or who need private parking should factor these issues into their decision.
