This three-bedroom detached home on Downs Avenue offers a rare blend of character, convenience, and untapped potential. Set on a generous plot, this property is ideal for families seeking to settle in one of Eastbourne’s most desirable residential locations, known for its community atmosphere, excellent schooling options, and close proximity to everyday amenities.

Upon entering the property, you’re welcomed into a bright and inviting entrance hallway that sets the tone for the rest of the home. Immediately to your right is a generous living room, bathed in natural light thanks to a large double-glazed bay window overlooking the front garden.

Connected to the kitchen is the dining room, which overlooks the rear garden and provides direct access to the outdoor space.
