Set on Hillcrest Road with far-reaching harbour and sea views, this three-bedroom semi-detached home offers solid period bones and scope for improvement. The property is chain free and freehold, with off-street parking, a garden basement/cellar and a rear garden that benefits from an elevated outlook across Newhaven harbour and Seaford Bay. Double glazing was installed post-2002 and mains gas heating serves radiators throughout.
The house will suit buyers looking to personalise and modernise: internal presentation is basic and the layout includes a ground-floor WC, separate dining room, lounge, kitchen, loft storage and a useful basement/garden room. There is clear potential to reconfigure or extend (subject to consents) and to add insulation, heating upgrades or cosmetic refurbishment to lift value and comfort.
Be practical about the location: the wider area scores as deprived with a higher local crime rate, so buyers should factor local amenity and safety considerations into plans. Positives include fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, nearby schools with good Ofsted ratings, and convenient access to shops and the seafront. Flood risk is low, and council tax banding is affordable.
