Both bedrooms are generously sized doubles, each complemented by a modern en-suite bath or shower room, while high-quality fixtures and finishes can be found throughout.
The property further benefits from a garage with electrically operated door, power and lighting, and a separate secure store room within the grounds, as well as access to the well-maintained communal gardens and allotment area, creating a sense of tranquillity and space rarely found in such a central, prestigious neighbourhood of Eastbourne.
