Summary - 3 Unicorn House, Croft Road TN34 3HE
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Affordable ground-floor one-bed with long lease and communal garden, close to Hastings seafront..
Ground-floor one-bedroom flat, c.485 sqft
A bright ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in Hastings Old Town, offering an affordable entry into a popular coastal neighbourhood. The open-plan 15ft lounge-kitchen opens onto communal gardens and lets in natural light through a modernist bay window. At about 485 sqft the layout suits a single occupant or couple seeking low-maintenance urban living with outdoor space.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (circa 900 years), low council tax (Band A) and straightforward running in a compact home. The communal garden and direct access onto Croft Road are useful extras, while the property’s mid-century character gives it charm and potential for cosmetic improvement.
Be aware of material issues: heating is by electric storage heaters and the building’s solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, which can mean higher energy bills. The local area shows signs of deprivation and recorded crime levels are high; that context will matter for some buyers and for resale. The service charge is approximately £1,300 per year.
This flat suits a first-time buyer or investor wanting a well-located, low-servicing home with scope to modernise. It is presented as habitable but not recently refurbished—expect cosmetic updating and potential improvements to heating and insulation if you prioritise running costs and long-term comfort.
