Set on the top floor of a Victorian terrace, this compact one-bedroom flat offers low-maintenance living a short walk from St Leonards seafront and the mainline station. The apartment includes a double bedroom, a modern fitted galley kitchen, and a fully tiled shower room with underfloor heating — practical touches that suit buyers wanting a ready-to-live-in pied‑à‑terre or a rental letting quickly.
The building retains period character such as high ceilings and a bay window at street level, while internal updates include double glazing and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. Share of freehold ownership and a chain-free sale simplify purchase and future management for an owner‑occupier or investor.
Buyers should note the property’s small size (approximately 412 sq ft) and the narrow kitchen layout, which limit storage and living space. The mid‑terrace’s solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation, so the flat may be less thermally efficient than newer builds and could incur higher heating costs without improvements.
The location is convenient for commuting and coastal leisure, and local primary schools have ‘Good’ Ofsted ratings. Conversely, the wider neighbourhood is marked by very high crime and significant deprivation statistics, so prospective buyers should consider security and long‑term area prospects when assessing suitability.
