This period townhouse is located in the heart of Eastbourne, providing a versatile layout that offers significant renovation and investment potential. Spread across three floors, the property currently features four bedrooms and two reception areas, along with a family bathroom and an additional separate toilet. Its design allows for a variety of options, including the possibility of creating independent living spaces or an annexe, pending necessary consents.

The kitchen/diner is equipped with essential wall and base units and offers ample space for appliances, facilitating easy updates to modernize the space. A lean-to conservatory connects seamlessly to the rear garden, which is designed as a low-maintenance courtyard with mature shrubs.
