Summary - 9 BLAKES WAY EASTBOURNE BN23 6EW
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free first-floor flat ideal for seaside downsizers seeking views and parking.
Sea and South Downs views from sitting room and balcony
Set directly on Eastbourne seafront, this first-floor two-bedroom apartment offers expansive sea and South Downs views from the sitting room and balcony. The layout is traditional and straightforward, with two double bedrooms, a separate kitchen, and a bathroom. Allocated parking and visitor bays add practical convenience for residents and guests.
The building dates from the 1980s and the interior presents a solid, liveable base but will benefit from updating — decor is dated and some fittings are standard for the era. Heating is by electric storage heaters and mains electricity; purchasers should consider running costs and possible future heating upgrades. The property has double glazing (pre-2002) and an EPC rating of C.
Lease details are favourable for the buyer: about 117 years remaining, service charge averaging £1,600 per year, and a small ground rent of £200. The flat is offered chain free, making for a simpler purchase for downsizers or those seeking a seaside second home. Local amenities, good bus links and the nearby marina are all within easy reach.
Important drawbacks: the block shows typical 1980s construction and exterior maintenance may be required in time; internal modernization is likely to be needed to maximise long-term value. Flood risk is low and broadband and mobile signals are strong, but buyers should check heating costs and any planned communal works before committing.
