This compact ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Hemsley House offers a straightforward, low-maintenance home close to Heathfield’s high street amenities. The open-plan living/kitchen and double bedroom make efficient use of the 319 sq ft, suited to a first-time buyer seeking an affordable entry into the area or an investor looking for a let-ready unit.
Practical benefits include level access, an allocated off-street parking space and modern finishes in the kitchen and bathroom. The building’s brick exterior and double glazing suggest reasonable thermal performance, while the property’s setting in a quiet, semi-rural town fringe gives easy access to shops, cafés and local schools.
Important leasehold details are material: there are 67 years remaining on the lease and a ground rent of £190. Some mortgage lenders may refuse to lend on shorter leases, so buyers should check financing options and factor potential future lease-extension costs into their budget.
Heating is electric via room heaters rather than a central system; running costs will reflect that. The flat is small, so storage and living space are limited but the compact layout is workable for a single occupant or couple. Overall this is an economical starter home or rental opportunity in a well-served town location, provided buyers are comfortable with the lease position and electric heating.
