This ground-floor studio offers a compact, low-maintenance home or rental near Eastbourne town centre and the mainline station. The 19' studio room, separate fitted kitchen and small private courtyard make it a practical choice for a single occupant or buy-to-let investor seeking central location and quick access to amenities.
The flat is leasehold with 151 years remaining, chain-free and presented in average condition — ready to occupy but likely requiring small cosmetic updates to personalise. Built c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls and double glazing, expect limited inherent insulation and the potential for improved thermal performance if you choose to upgrade.
Running costs include an average service charge of £1,450pa and a modest £50 ground rent; council tax is very cheap. Note the property sits in a very deprived neighbourhood with very high local crime rates — important for owner-occupiers and investors to weigh when considering security, tenant demand and insurance.
Positive practical extras include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and immediate access to shopping, transport and local services. The flat’s size and layout suit a first-time buyer, city worker or investor seeking a straightforward, centrally located studio with modest outdoor space.
