2 bed flat for sale

Eversfield Place, St. Leonards-On-Sea TN37

There is something particularly easy about living here. Only a stone's throw to the beach, Hastings and St Leonards are both within walking distance, and day-to-day life settles into a rhythm that feels calm, practical and connected to the coast.

The apartment itself has been thoughtfully renovated to support modern living without losing its sense of character. The kitchen has become the natural centre of the home, extended into what was once an underused hallway to create a sociable and functional space with a separate coffee area. Mornings tend to begin here, with fresh coffee brewing and the courtyard doors open to birdsong from the surrounding gardens. Woodpeckers, squirrels and other wildlife are regular visitors to the trees outside, which gives the apartment a surprisingly peaceful feel despite its central location.

The kitchen flows directly into the enclosed private courtyard, a rare feature for an apartment so close to the seafront. In summer, the doors are often left open while dinner cooks inside and drinks are shared outdoors. There is room for a barbecue, pizza oven and seating without the space ever feeling crowded, and the courtyard remains notably private throughout the year. The evening light settles here particularly well, casting a warm glow across the garden as the day slows down.

Inside, the lounge is generous and adaptable rather than formal. Natural light pours through the large front window during the day, while the proportions comfortably allow space for dining, working from home and relaxing without compromise. Over time it has accommodated everything from a treadmill and gaming setup to a desk overlooking the sea. For buyers balancing hybrid working with coastal living, the apartment handles both naturally.

The principal bedroom is quiet, spacious and genuinely restful. A super king bed fits comfortably alongside substantial wardrobes, and the lack of traffic noise makes the room feel tucked away from the busier energy of the seafront outside. Throughout the apartment, the rooms retain warmth well during winter without becoming stuffy in summer, helped by large windows and effective gas central heating. Notably, this is the only apartment within the building to benefit from its own gas central heating system. Several of the radiators have been individually chosen to suit the character of each room, while the combi boiler delivers almost instant hot water to both the kitchen and bathroom.

Life beyond the apartment is equally appealing. Goat Ledge, Heist, Bella Vista and the bars around Source Skate Park have become regular fixtures in the sellers’ routine, whether for morning coffee, street food, cocktails or long evenings by the sea. Walks along the promenade stretch easily towards Bexhill or Hastings Old Town, taking in Bulverhythe’s open coastal views one way and the fishing huts and boats the other. Alexandra Park and Warrior Square Gardens offer quieter green spaces nearby, though it is the beach itself that shapes everyday life here.

Despite being so central, practicalities are refreshingly straightforward. Permit parking is readily available nearby and inexpensive to maintain, with additional free parking for visitors along St Margaret’s Road. Large supermarkets are within a short drive, though most daily essentials can be picked up on foot. There is little need to use the car regularly once home.

The apartment is offered with a share of freehold and a 999-year lease from January 2008, with a peppercorn ground rent. Service charges are approximately £1,780 per annum. There is a notably positive relationship between the property management company and the building’s freeholders, with owners also having the option to become directors of the Moreton Court Residents’ Association.

The building itself has been carefully maintained over the years, including the removal of the rear fire escape in 2019 and a complete roof refurbishment and loft renovation completed in April 2026. As things stand, no known major works are anticipated.

The apartment will feel familiar to buyers looking for a more grounded kind of coastal living. Somewhere connected and sociable, but still peaceful at the end of the day. A home that works equally well for a professional couple working from home, a young family wanting to stay close to the sea, or downsizers looking for privacy, walkability and a gentler pace without losing convenience.

What the sellers will miss most is difficult to separate from the lifestyle itself. Morning walks along the promenade, spontaneous swims in summer, open windows carrying in sea air, and the ease of being able to step out for coffee, dinner or the beach without planning the day around it. It is a home that has quietly shaped itself around everyday life
