Abbott and Abbott Estate Agents offer for sale, with no onward chain this excellent refurbishment opportunity, a truly delightful detached Grade II listed cottage of considerable charm and character, situated in the much-favoured and historic Old Town of Hastings.

Two staircases lead to the first floor, with two intercommunicating rooms forming a main bedroom suite, plus two further bedrooms.
