A ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in Andwell Court, offered chain-free and vacant, ideal for someone looking to downsize close to the Eastbourne seafront. The flat has its own private entrance onto Trinity Place and a small patio, plus access to well-kept communal gardens and a residents’ lounge. A development manager, communal laundry and a bookable guest suite add convenience for visitors and peace of mind.
The accommodation totals about 420 sq ft and includes a generous living room, compact kitchen, double bedroom with built-in wardrobe and a bathroom with a shower over the bath. The property is double-glazed and benefits from electric storage heating. Off-street residents’ parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Important practical considerations: the lease has 61 years remaining — many mortgage lenders may refuse lending on this term, which could limit buyer options to cash purchasers or specialist lenders. Annual service charges average around £2,900 and ground rent is £160; factor these holding costs into affordability calculations. The local area records higher crime levels, so prospective buyers should assess personal security and visit at different times.
For a buyer seeking a manageable, ground-floor retirement home near the sea, this apartment offers low-maintenance living and communal support. It will particularly suit those able to buy without standard mortgage finance or who accept the longer-term need to extend the lease.
