• Approx. 722 sq ft internal area — larger than typical one-beds

This ground-floor one-bedroom garden flat is offered chain-free and suits a first-time buyer or buy-to-live purchaser seeking a low-maintenance, city-centre base close to Hastings station. The apartment feels spacious for its type, with a bay-fronted lounge-dining room, contemporary kitchen, useful utility/rear lobby and a private rear garden for outdoor sitting or entertaining.
Practical positives include double glazing, mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, generous built-in bedroom storage and an overall large internal footprint (approx. 722 sq ft). The layout is traditional and straightforward, with a private entrance down from street level that gives a sense of independence often missing in flats.
Important practical notes: the property is leasehold with about 89 years remaining (125-year lease from 1989), and service charge/ground rent details remain to be confirmed. The building is solid-brick and likely lacking wall insulation, so prospective buyers should factor potential insulation or energy-efficiency works into running costs. The area shows very high crime levels and ranks as very deprived locally — buyers should consider local context and security measures.
This is a realistic purchase for someone prioritising location, a private outdoor space and ready-to-live accommodation while accepting leasehold constraints and the need to review running-cost and safety implications. Viewing will show the flat’s bright, contemporary interior and the low-maintenance garden at the rear.
