A thoughtfully converted lower-ground one-bedroom apartment in The Esperance, positioned within walking distance of Eastbourne seafront, shops and the mainline station. The open-plan living/kitchen is bright and practical, with integrated appliances including fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Double doors give direct access to a well-kept communal courtyard, offering rare private outdoor access for a basement home.
The bedroom is generously proportioned for a one-bed and will suit those furnishing for full-time living or a lock-up-and-leave seaside base. The bathroom and internal finishes are described as modern and of good standard. The long lease (approximately 999 years) and new-conversion status remove typical leasehold anxieties common with older flats.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: the home uses electric storage heating, has an EPC rating of E, and sits at lower-ground level which may influence natural light compared with upper-floor flats. There is no allocated on-site parking; street parking is available with resident permits. An annual service charge of about £1,100 covers communal maintenance. The surrounding area has excellent amenities but records a higher-than-average local crime indicator, which buyers may wish to review.
Overall this property will appeal to first-time purchasers or downsizers seeking a low-maintenance, well-located coastal pied-à-terre with outdoor communal space and modern fixtures, provided they are comfortable with electric heating and on-street parking.
