This ground-floor one-bedroom flat sits within easy walking distance of Bexhill town centre, train station and the seafront — a convenient base for first-time buyers or investors. The interior features a bright bay-fronted lounge, engineered wooden floors in living areas and bedroom, and a separate kitchen with good cupboard space. The double bedroom includes built-in wardrobes and generous storage.
The property is offered with vacant possession and a very long lease (c.996 years) as a share of freehold, reducing typical leasehold concerns. Practical extras include an off-street parking space to the front, two outside storage cupboards to the rear, and access to a west-facing shared garden with a summerhouse that has electricity connected.
This flat needs updating and would reward a buyer willing to renovate — straightforward cosmetic and modernisation work could add significant value. Buyers should note the local area scores high for crime and is relatively deprived, which may affect resale or rental yields. The building dates from c.1900–1929, has cavity walls assumed with no insulation, and double glazing of unknown age; buyers should commission standard surveys and lease/freehold verification.
Overall, the flat offers a compact, sensible layout and strong location for amenities and transport. It’s well-suited to a first-time buyer wanting a ready-to-personalise home, or an investor seeking a central Bexhill-let with clear refurbishment potential.
