Comfortable, well-maintained two-bedroom retirement apartment in Southdown Court, a short walk from Hailsham town centre. The flat is located in the annex away from the main block yet retains full use of communal facilities including laundry, lounge, guest accommodation and landscaped communal gardens. An on-site manager and 24-hour emergency call system provide additional peace of mind for independent retirees.
Internally the layout is traditional and practical: a spacious sitting/dining room with good natural light, a fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms and a shower room. The property is chain free and presented in good order, suitable for immediate occupation or light updating to personal taste. Double glazing is fitted and the EPC is C.
Important costs and tenure details are clear: this is a leasehold apartment with approximately 116 years remaining. Annual outgoings include an above-average service charge (£4,562.80 per year) and a comparatively high ground rent (£526.06 per year). Heating is via electric storage heaters, which may increase running costs compared with gas-heated homes.
This apartment will suit downsizers or retirees seeking convenience, on-site support and easy access to local amenities. It offers low-maintenance living and communal social spaces, but buyers should budget for service charges, ground rent and electric heating costs when assessing overall affordability.
