Set on the first floor of a contemporary semi-detached building, this two-bedroom apartment offers a compact, practical layout and easy access to cliff-top walks and local amenities. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner creates a bright, versatile living space ideal for short-term lets or long-term tenants. With 679 sq ft overall, the flat is an average-sized, manageable investment close to public transport links to Brighton and Eastbourne.
Practical details strengthen the proposition: an exceptionally long lease (992 years), a clear no-flood-risk designation and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for renters or working-from-home tenants. Running costs are influenced by electric room heaters and an electricity main fuel; the property is therefore straightforward but may be less economical than gas-heated homes. Service charge is circa £1,848 per year and council tax is described as cheap.
The apartment includes useful storage — a large utility cupboard in the hallway and loft access — and room proportions that suit two-bed occupancy or a buy-to-let layout (22'5" x 12'1" main reception; 15'5" main bedroom). The building and communal areas appear contemporary from the street; however, buyers should budget for routine maintenance and ensure appliances and services are checked, as no guarantees are provided.
This property will suit investors seeking a seaside-edge rental in a self-sufficient retirement area and first-time buyers wanting easy transport and local facilities. Important: purchasers must verify all details with their solicitor, and any prospective buyer seeking lower running costs may wish to explore heating upgrades.
