High Street, Battle , TN33

An investment opportunity for those looking to expand their portfolio.  A substantial flat of 1300 sq.ft. with a tenant in-situ on an Assured Shorthold Tenancy until March 2024.

Occupying the top two floors of an attractive Grade II listed building, there are two generous reception rooms with good ceiling heights and large windows overlooking the High Street.  To the first floor is a kitchen large enough to eat in with a pleasant outlook over a neighbouring courtyard, a family bathroom with feature fireplace and a separate wc.  To the second floor are two bedrooms overlooking the High Street.

This property offers enough space to serve as a very comfortable family home but also given its secure central location, could also make a wonderful second home or a buy to let investment.

Battle is well served with character pubs and restaurants, primary and secondary schools and a mainline station with regular train services to fashionable St Leonards on the coast and London Charing Cross approximately 1 hour and 15 mins. 

The local area is well served for recreational facilities and sites of historical interest, as well as numerous countryside walks and wonderful beaches.  

The apartment is available with no onward chain and will be sold with the benefit of a new 125 year lease.
