Summary - Second Floor Flat, 46 Cavendish Place BN21 3HY
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact town-centre one-bed ideal for a first home or small investment.
Chain free with share of freehold and 982 years remaining on lease
A compact one-bedroom second-floor flat in the heart of Eastbourne, offered chain free with a very long lease and a share of freehold. The open-plan kitchen/living room benefits from a front bay window and high Victorian ceilings that bring character and natural light. The double bedroom sits to the rear and the layout is straightforward for a first home or buy-to-let.
Practical positives include 982 years remaining on the lease, double glazing already installed, mains gas central heating with radiators, and unusually low council tax. The location puts town-centre amenities and the seafront within easy walking distance, ideal for someone wanting convenience and local transport links.
Be upfront about the costs and context: the advertised annual service charge is around £2,470 and the wider area shows high crime levels and significant deprivation indicators. The building is a Victorian mid-terrace with solid brick walls (likely uninsulated) and may need cosmetic or energy-efficiency upgrades. The flat is small at roughly 394 sq ft, so it suits someone prioritising location over space.
This property will appeal to a first-time buyer seeking an affordable entry into Eastbourne or an investor targeting central rental demand. Expect to budget for improvements and factor in the service charge and local area considerations when judging long-term value.
