Summary - First Floor Flat, 82 High Street TN34 3EL
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Characterful Georgian apartment needing modernisation close to seafront and amenities.
Chain-free one-bedroom flat with long 999-year lease
Set on the first floor of a Grade II listed Georgian building in Hastings Old Town, this one-bedroom flat is a genuine blank canvas with strong upside for the right buyer. The apartment features high ceilings, bay windows to the High Street and a separate kitchen overlooking Sinnock Square — characterful elements that suit a sympathetic update. The long lease (circa 999 years) and chain-free sale simplify ownership, while the compact layout makes the property suitable as a pied-à-terre or rental unit.
The flat requires modernisation: heating is by electric room heaters, glazing is secondary/double fitted before 2002, and the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated. The building’s listed status may restrict alterations and adds complexity to works; buyers should budget for refurbishment costs and possible specialist consents. Service charges average around £1,200 per year and council tax is Band A (very low).
This location is the principal selling point — moments from independent shops, galleries, cafés, pubs and the seafront. Broadband and mobile signals are good, and nearby schools have positive ratings. The area is mixed and shows higher crime and deprivation indicators, which buyers should weigh against the central Old Town convenience and rental demand. Early viewings recommended for those seeking period character and renovation potential in a prime seaside spot.
