They are arranged over three floors with a gas heating system via radiators and retain many original features, including fireplaces, original sash windows and coving throughout. The rooms are well appointed and were formerly used as offices by the Local Authority but would suit a variety of uses, including residential conversion, subject to all necessary consents being obtainable.
The property is situated in the heart of the sought after Meads District, with easy access to Eastbourne town centre with its comprehensive local shopping facilities, seafront and mainline station. Eastbourne is situated between Brighton and Hastings with excellent road links to all surrounding areas via the nearby A259 and A27.

01622 279788Clive Emson Auctioneers was founded in 1989 to supply a high profile auctioneering facility to corporate and independent estate agents, private clients and statutory bodies. Our success is due to, and remains, attributable to a firm commitment to quality and service distinguished by both our Investors in People and ISO accreditations. The concept of the Company is to provide a specialist land and property auctioneering service and, therefore, does not compete with the traditional estate agency, mortgage broking, insurance or any other aspect of the property world. All properties upon which we are instructed are offered for sale in the auction catalogue. The 20-25,000 full colour catalogues produced for each of our auctions are available either by post or through a network of over 850 estate agency outlets throughout Southern England. Our marketing is supported by more estate agency offices than any other auctioneers practice. In addition lot details, catalogue downloads, viewings and legal documentation are available through this website.
