Summary - FLAT 5B, WILTON HOUSE, GROSVENOR GARDENS, ST. LEONARDS-ON-SEA TN38 0AG
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Spacious Victorian flat with private courtyards and long lease by the sea..
Seafront location, short walk to promenade and mainline station
Set in the period Wilton House and bordering the St Leonards seafront, this two-bedroom lower-ground flat offers spacious rooms, high ceilings and private front and rear courtyards for outdoor living. The large kitchen/diner is the heart of the home and suits everyday family life, social cooking or holiday-let use. With 775 sq ft of accommodation, the layout feels generous for a flat of this age.
Practical strengths include a long lease (circa 183 years), mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing, a private entrance and no onward chain. The property will appeal to seaside buyers and buy-to-let investors seeking a characterful Victorian building within easy walking distance of the promenade, local shops and St Leonards mainline station.
Buyers should note material and local issues up front: the building is solid-brick and likely uninsulated, so energy efficiency may be poor and improvement work may be needed. The area records higher-than-average crime and marked deprivation; flooding risk is assessed as medium. Service costs are payable (bi-annual charge £1,100; typical annual service charge shown as £2,200) and ground rent is £50. The flat is leasehold — the long lease is a benefit, but buyers should budget for communal maintenance and possible refurbishment to update thermal performance and finishes.
Overall, this is a characterful, chain-free seaside flat with strong rental and lifestyle potential for a buyer willing to accept some local and fabric-related trade-offs. Early viewing recommended to judge condition, layout and scope for upgrades.
