Summary - GROUND FLOOR FLAT, 40 MAGDALEN ROAD, ST LEONARDS-ON-SEA TN37 6ET
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Large open-plan living, private gardens and excellent commuter links.
Chain free with approximately 954 years remaining on lease
This ground-floor garden flat sits in an end-of-terrace Victorian building and offers a large 18ft open-plan lounge-kitchen-diner, a spacious double bedroom and a separate study — a practical layout for a first home or rental. The property is offered chain free with an exceptionally long lease (approx. 954 years), low ground rent (£40pa) and a below-average service charge (£804pa).
The flat benefits from private front and rear gardens and large bay windows that bring in light. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; windows are double glazed. Its location is a short walk from Warrior Square station and St Leonards town centre, making commuting and local amenities very accessible.
Be candid about the area and fabric: the neighbourhood records high crime and high deprivation relative to other areas, which may affect resale or rental premiums. The building is solid-brick Victorian with no known wall insulation (assumed) and there are signs the property would benefit from updating and ongoing maintenance; possible damp should be checked during survey. These are typical of period conversions but important for budgeting.
Overall this is a low-entry, chain-free opportunity for a buyer seeking a sizeable one-bedroom flat with outdoor space and commuter links. It suits a first-time buyer looking to personalise a home or an investor targeting long-lease, garden-flat stock — subject to due diligence on local market conditions and property condition.
