A bright, chain-free one-bedroom apartment on the second floor of Homegate House, quietly positioned within easy walking distance of Eastbourne town centre and the mainline station. The lounge is spacious for its size and benefits from a large double-glazed window; the fitted kitchen and recently refitted shower room provide practical, low-maintenance living. Communal facilities include a residents’ lounge, laundry room, gardens and off-street parking, supporting a sociable, low-effort retirement lifestyle.
Important practical points are clear: the property is leasehold with 58 years remaining. That shorter lease may deter some lenders and could affect mortgage availability or future value, so buyers should check financing options and potential costs of lease extension. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than central systems and worth factoring into running costs despite the property’s EPC B rating and low council tax band.
This apartment suits downsizers seeking convenience and community rather than a large, long-term investment project. It’s ready to move into with minimal immediate works, but buyers who require mortgage finance should confirm lender acceptance before committing. For those able to pay cash or secure lending, the flat offers sensible, well-presented accommodation in a central town location with communal amenities and parking.
