Located on the second floor of a striking Grade II listed former school, this newly converted two-bedroom apartment blends original Georgian character with high-spec contemporary finishes. High ceilings and two large south-facing restored sash windows flood the open-plan living and kitchen area with natural light; engineered oak flooring and shaker-style units with Silestone worktops complete the elegant interior.
The principal bedroom has a luxury ensuite and the second bedroom is exceptionally generous, supported by a family bathroom with a twin vanity. Environmentally efficient features include solar panels, a ground-source heat pump and an on-site EV charging point, helping reduce running costs and future-proof the home for low-carbon living.
Practical advantages include allocated off-street parking and a very long lease (998 years). That said, the listed status means alterations will be constrained and could complicate future refurbishment plans. The apartment forms part of a communal conversion in a lively, cosmopolitan student neighbourhood — ideal for professionals seeking character and sustainability but important to note for buyers sensitive to local activity levels.
In short, this apartment offers a rare combination of period charm, modern energy efficiencies and generous living space in central St Leonards. It will suit buyers who value listed character and low-running-cost mechanicals, and who accept the limitations that listed designation and a mixed-use neighbourhood bring.
