Summary - Flat 1, 48 Langney Road, EASTBOURNE BN21 3JP
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Ready-to-move-in starter with long lease and period features.
Ground-floor one-bedroom with private rear patio garden
This ground-floor one-bedroom garden flat occupies the lower level of a Victorian terrace and has been recently refreshed throughout. The bay-fronted bedroom and high ceilings retain period character, while wooden floors and a fitted kitchen create a ready-to-live-in finish. The flat is chain free and offered with a very long share-of-freehold lease (circa 984 years).
Practical benefits include direct access to a private rear patio garden, gas central heating via boiler and radiators, and a compact layout that suits first-time buyers or buy-to-let purchasers. The property measures approximately 499 sqft and includes a walk-in storage cupboard and a fitted bathroom off the kitchen. Council tax is low and there is no flooding risk.
Notable negatives are the neighbourhood statistics: the immediate area records very high crime and is classified as very deprived. The communal service charge is relatively high at about £2,416 (average) — important to factor into monthly costs. The building is Victorian with solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated), so future owners should consider thermal upgrades if desired.
Overall this flat offers an affordable entry into the town-centre market with genuine period charm, a long lease, and private outdoor space. It will suit a buyer who values location and immediate usability but who is comfortable buying into a tougher neighbourhood and budgeting for service charges and potential longer-term improvements.
