Summary - 79 HIGH STREET HASTINGS TN34 3EL
2 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Characterful, move-in ready home close to seafront and cafés.
Chain-free two-bedroom maisonette with recent sympathetic refurbishment
Set over the top two floors of a Grade II listed building in Hastings Old Town, this chain-free two-bedroom maisonette combines period character with recent sympathetic refurbishment. The living room retains original wood panelling and sash windows, and the compact kitchen preserves traditional details while providing modern appliances. The property benefits from a long lease and a share of freehold, giving security for future buyers.
Externally there is a communal courtyard garden — a rare outdoor space in this part of the Old Town — and windows offer elevated views across the town and East Hill. The flat is well presented throughout after works by the current owners, ready to move into with minimal immediate expense.
Prospective buyers should note the property’s Grade II listing: external and some internal changes may be restricted and will require listed-building consent. The maisonette sits in a dense, high‑street setting with a small plot and relatively low ceiling heights in places. The neighbourhood records higher-than-average crime levels, which some buyers will want to consider.
Practical running costs are modest: a long lease (circa 985 years), an affordable service charge of about £70 PCM, and low council tax. For first-time buyers or anyone seeking a characterful coastal base close to cafes, bars, seafront and good transport links, this is a rare, move‑in ready opportunity in a highly sought Old Town location.
