Large rooms, garden outlook and garage ideal for growing families.
Extremely large first-floor apartment with high ceilings and bay windows
A remarkably spacious three/ four-bedroom first-floor apartment occupying the entire first floor of a handsome early-20th-century building in Lower Meads, Eastbourne. Rooms are notably large with high ceilings and bay windows; the south-facing sitting room and balcony overlook well-kept communal gardens, creating a bright, private feel. The current layout includes a separate study (usable as a fourth bedroom), two bathrooms plus a separate WC, and a modern kitchen with integrated appliances and a breakfast bar.
Practical extras add genuine value: a larger-than-average garage in a block, extensive basement storage, gas central heating and double glazing. The flat is offered chain free with a 999-year lease and a share of the freehold. The generous communal gardens and proximity to town centre, train station, seafront and reputable local schools will particularly suit families or buyers seeking roomy principal accommodation with easy access to local amenities.
Be upfront about some material points: the building’s solid-brick construction likely has limited cavity insulation, the EPC rating is D, and broadband speeds are reported slow. As a share-of-freehold property there is a responsibility to contribute to maintenance when required; buyers should check service arrangements and confirm new-build-style performance expectations before committing.
Overall this property is a rare large-period flat with flexible space, good storage and outdoor outlook. It will suit purchasers who value generous room sizes and outdoor amenity and who are willing to accept modest energy performance and investigate any upgrade works (insulation, electrics or broadband improvements) to modernise comfort and efficiency.
