This second-floor retirement flat offers a compact, secure home with communal gardens and lift access, suited to a downsizer seeking proximity to town and transport. The building includes a residents’ lounge and laundry, and the flat looks over well-kept communal grounds that add privacy and greenery.
Internally the layout is straightforward: a light living room with dining space, a double bedroom with built-in wardrobe, a small practical kitchen, and an enclosed shower room. The property is heated by electric storage heaters and fitted with double glazing; the electric main fuel means heating costs can vary depending on use and tariffs.
The flat is sold leasehold with 91 years remaining. Service charge and ground rent apply (approximately £1,806.15 paid half-yearly; ground rent £249.16 half-yearly), so factor ongoing costs into budgeting. The compact kitchen and dated finishes present clear refurbishment potential for someone wanting to personalise or modernise.
Location is a strong selling point: a short walk to Seaford town centre, local shops, and the train station with links to Brighton and London. The area shows low crime, no flood risk and generally good local amenities, making this a practical, low-stress option for retirement living or a buy-to-let aimed at older tenants.
