This 1930s bay‑fronted semi‑detached home sits on a prominent corner plot in Old Town, Eastbourne, and will suit a family seeking period charm with scope to modernise. Light, well‑proportioned rooms include two reception spaces, a fitted kitchen, three bedrooms and a large bathroom; original features such as stained glass, bay windows and two fireplaces are retained throughout.
The wrap‑around gardens are a standout — generous lawned areas to front, side and rear create room for children and pets and offer extension potential (STPP). Practicalities are covered with gas central heating, double glazing and loft access with partial boarding; an Anderson‑style air‑raid shelter provides useful covered storage and an interesting period feature.
The property does require renovation in places and would benefit from updating to modern standards. Walls are assumed to have no cavity insulation and some finishes are dated; buyers should factor in potential costs for kitchen/bathroom upgrades and general modernisation. There is one main bathroom and no en‑suite, which may be a limitation for larger families without reconfiguration.
Positioned close to highly regarded schools, local shops, bus routes and easy road links, the house is also within easy reach of the South Downs National Park and Eastbourne town centre. Offered freehold with no flood risk and fast broadband/mobile coverage, this home offers solid upside for buyers willing to invest in improvement.
