2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Central flat close to beach, shops and transport — ideal entry-level purchase.
Long 999-year lease with share of freehold
Allocated off-street parking space included
Newly redecorated; ready for immediate occupation
Compact 584 sq ft; small overall internal size
Service charge £927 payable twice yearly (below average)
Solid brick walls likely uninsulated — may affect heating costs
Low flood risk and EPC Band C; mains gas heating
Local crime levels reported high — consider security and resale impact
This recently redecorated two-bedroom apartment sits on the second floor of an attractive period block in the heart of Seaford town centre, a short walk from the seafront, shops, restaurants and transport links. The flat offers a long lease (999 years) with a share of freehold, allocated off-street parking and vacant possession — useful practical benefits for a first-time buyer.
Internally the layout is traditional and efficiently arranged: lounge, fitted kitchen/breakfast room, two bedrooms and a modern bathroom. The accommodation has double glazing, gas central heating and an EPC Band C; its compact 584 sq ft footprint makes it manageable to run and maintain. The block is solid-brick construction (assumed uninsulated internally) which may affect heating costs unless improved.
Outgoings are straightforward: a below-average service charge of £927 paid twice yearly and peppercorn ground rent. The location and condition also suit investor buyers — current market rent is estimated at about £1,200 pcm — though local crime levels are reported as high and should be weighed when considering rental demand or resale.
Practical considerations: the apartment is small in overall size and sits in an area classified as hampered aspiration, so buyers should be realistic about future capital growth. On the upside, excellent mobile and fast broadband speeds, proximity to an Outstanding secondary school and quick access to the beach give this property genuine everyday appeal.
