Summary - 12 RYE STREET EASTBOURNE BN22 7PN
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Two-bedroom fixer with garden and strong rental potential near stations and seafront.
Approximately 965 sq ft — larger-than-average two-bedroom layout
This vacant two-bedroom end-terrace offers a substantial footprint (approx. 965 sq ft) and clear scope for value uplift through refurbishment. Its Victorian character, small rear garden and nearby transport links make it suitable for buy-to-let or renovation and resale projects.
The property is being sold freehold by online auction with a strict six weeks’ completion period — buyers should be prepared for a quick exchange. Internally the house requires a full programme of modernisation throughout; double glazing and mains gas central heating are already in place, but the building has solid brick walls with no assumed cavity insulation and will need upgrading for modern standards.
Location strengths include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, easy access to Eastbourne town centre, the seafront and Hampden Park mainline station, plus several well-rated primary schools nearby. Rental demand in the area is steady, supporting lettings after renovation.
Material negatives to note: the area records higher crime and local deprivation indicators, the plot is small, and the property will need investment to bring it up to contemporary living standards. This is a clear, higher-reward opportunity for experienced investors or hands-on buyers comfortable with refurbishment and auction timetables.
