Summary - 34, Mountfield Road, EASTBOURNE BN22 9BS
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Budget-friendly fixer with garden and strong transport links for commuters.
Chain free, freehold three-bedroom mid-terrace
A chain-free, freehold three-bedroom mid-terrace offering clear scope to add value. The house sits close to the mainline station and local shops, with good broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical for commuting, rental or first-time ownership. The property needs renovation throughout: cosmetic updating, possible reconfiguration and confirmation of services (double glazing install date and wall insulation unknown).
Period character remains, including a bay window and a mid-century fireplace, set on an apparently solid-brick structure built before 1900. The rear garden and very large overall plot provide rare outdoor potential for this street; the modest front garden is low-maintenance with street parking outside. Heating is mains gas boiler to radiators.
Be frank about the location: the neighbourhood shows higher crime levels and local area indicators point to deprivation, which will affect school choice and resale expectations. Council tax is low and the home could suit a budget-conscious first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor prepared to refurbish and manage the area risks.
Practical next steps are a thorough survey and checks on insulation/structural issues and local management needs. With sensible investment this terrace can deliver more comfortable living space or improved rental returns, but the current condition means budget for renovation and safety/securement works.
