Compact, well-located one-bedroom flat with communal garden and long lease.
Private entrance and hallway with storage cupboard
A compact one-bedroom purpose-built flat in Upperton, moments from Eastbourne town centre, mainline station and Gildredge Park. The flat has its own private entrance, a bright living room with patio doors opening to a well-kept westerly communal garden, a fitted kitchen and a good-sized bedroom with built-in wardrobe.
Practical benefits include a very long lease (943 years), fast broadband availability and unusually low council tax, making this attractive for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The communal garden and outside storage area add usable outdoor and bike/storage space without private maintenance responsibility.
Be clear about the likely running costs and upgrade needs: heating is by electric storage heaters and the property dates from the late 1960s/70s with cavity walls shown as uninsulated (assumed). The flat is small at about 438 sq ft and will suit someone seeking a compact, well-located home rather than a larger family property.
Overall, this is an affordable, well-located entry-level flat with immediate occupancy potential and straightforward renovation or modernisation scope for improved comfort and energy efficiency.
