White Rock Gardens, Hastings, TN34 1LD

Occupying the uppermost floor of a considerable stucco-fronted Victorian terrace is this three-bedroom lateral conversion.

Commanding an elevated position just one road back from the promenade, its southerly aspect frames sweeping views of England's south coast.

Generous Victorian proportions provide the backdrop for a confident decorative scheme, where colour and original architectural details sit comfortably as one.

Inside Entry is via a polished timber staircase rising through the communal hall to the uppermost floor.

A broad central hallway unfolds to a lateral plan where a Corinthian-style pilaster provides an unexpected architectural flourish.

To the front, the principal reception room enjoys uninterrupted southerly views through a pair of arched timber sash windows.

Walls are finished in a warm blush terracotta, while a decorative cross-strapped ceiling introduces texture overhead.

The kitchen sits alongside, donned with bespoke in-frame cabinetry, painted in a muted sand tone, topped with dark quartz. Engineered timber flooring introduces warmth underfoot.

Commanding a similarly privileged position overlooking the sea. An arched opening separates the cooking and dining areas, creating a natural sense of separation.

Three double bedrooms sit comfortably within the scheme, the principal to the front. Currently used as a study, sharing the same expansive sea views through familiar arched sash windows.

An imposing black marble fireplace anchors the room, set against walls painted in a soft apple green.

To the rear, a west-facing bedroom is finished in deep inky tones, accompanied by a contemporary en-suite, where blue tiling lines the walk-in shower.

The third bedroom retains original built-in cabinetry, detailed in rose-toned painted timber with northerly roof scape views.

A short run of steps leads to the family bathroom, where a deep-set bath is framed by bespoke birch-ply joinery, carefully designed to conceal storage, whilst introducing a more contemporary material palette.

A useful utility room provides plentiful space for laundry. Sisal flooring runs underfoot, continuing through much of the space, lending a quiet consistency.

Area The mature lawns of White Rock Gardens unfold just beyond, surrounded by established greenery while providing a vantage point for the coastline below.

The promenade and beach are also moments away, giving easy access to the creative hub of St Leonards and the eclectic Hastings Old Town.

Hastings mainline station is in close proximity, providing a direct link into central London.
