A chain-free, lower-floor one-bedroom garden apartment in a Victorian terraced building, offered with a lengthy 113-year lease. The flat has its own private entrance, a generous 13ft lounge, separate kitchen and an enclosed rear garden — useful extras in a central St Leonards location close to the seafront and Warrior Square station.
Period character is evident in the building’s sash windows, high ceilings and decorative cornices. The apartment is gas-heated via a boiler and radiators, has double glazing (install date unknown) and practical room proportions across approximately 463 sq ft. It will suit a first-time buyer or couple seeking affordable seaside living with outside space.
Buyers should note material running costs and local context: an annual service charge of about £2,500 and ground rent of around £120, plus the property sits in a very deprived neighbourhood with above-average crime. The building is solid-brick (no known wall insulation) and constructed before 1900, so there may be potential for thermal upgrades and cosmetic improvement to increase comfort and value.
Overall this is a straightforward, characterful one-bedroom with private outside space and a long lease. It offers immediate occupancy chain-free but will appeal most to purchasers prepared to accept the neighbourhood context and potential expenditure on upgrades or ongoing service-charge commitments.
