This ground-floor one-bedroom flat in central Eastbourne offers clear investor potential and an affordable entry point into the local market. The property is chain-free and comes with a private enclosed garden — rare for a small town-centre flat — and is being sold by auction for a quick completion window.
The accommodation totals approximately 398 sq ft and includes a separate living room, a spacious kitchen/dining area and a shower room. The layout is practical for a rental let or a refurbishment project aimed at adding modern finishes and boosting rental or resale value. Service charge is low (about £500pa) and there are roughly 90 years remaining on the lease.
Buyers should note the flat requires renovation throughout and currently uses electric room heaters rather than gas central heating. The property sits in a very high crime and very deprived area classification, which will affect desirability and achievable rents or resale values. The auction sale route carries additional buyer costs: a Buyer Information Pack fee and a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of purchase price, minimum £6,600).
This is a pragmatic buy for an investor or a purchaser prepared to renovate and manage short-term risks. If you are comfortable with auction mechanics, leasehold ownership and refurbishment works, the flat presents an affordable, central foothold in Eastbourne with potential upside after improvement.
