Compact investment close to Hastings beach and Old Town with immediate rental potential.
Seafront position opposite beach and foot of Hastings Castle
This compact flat occupies a Grade II listed crescent in central Hastings, directly opposite the seafront and at the foot of Hastings Castle. The position delivers easy walking access to Hastings town centre, Old Town and the beach — a strong location for short-term lets or long-term rental demand.
Internally the accommodation is a studio layout with a modern fitted kitchenette, original sash window, wood flooring and a contemporary bathroom. At about 308 sq ft the space is small but efficiently arranged; the 107-year lease gives long-term security for a buyer.
There are several practical limitations to factor in. The building’s listed status may restrict alterations and will complicate consent for works. Heating is by electric room heaters, walls are assumed uninsulated solid brick and the flat will need attention if improved energy performance is required. The neighbourhood records very high crime levels and is classified as very deprived, which may affect tenant profiles and rental rates.
This property is offered by Modern Method of Auction with a starting bid of £80,000 plus a reservation fee. For an investor or buyer seeking a low-entry coastal asset, the combination of seafront location, modest service charge and low council tax creates potential — but plan for listed-building constraints, energy upgrades and local-area risks when assessing returns.
