This superb luxury ground floor apartment in the heart of Eastbourne is a 2-minute walk from Devonshire Park and the Devonshire Park Theatre, and 3 minutes from the seafront promenade and the heart of the town. Keesha House is in a great location for local cafés, restaurants and galleries, whilst still enjoying a peaceful setting along the seafront.
Accessed by a short flight of stairs, the apartment is superbly presented with a spacious living room and kitchen area. The design is clever since the apartment wraps around a central staircase, so the bedrooms are quite separate. High ceilings in this period apartment make it feel very spacious, and bay windows throw in plenty of light. There are two bedrooms, one with a double bed and one with twin beds, and a bathroom. Beach towels and bath robes are provided which is a lovely touch. There is free on street parking, or alternatively, coupon parking can be arranged to ensure you find a parking space.
Eastbourne is known as the sunshine coast and attracts some of the best weather in England. The lower slopes of the South Downs drop down from Beachy Head on to the magnificent promenade that stretches for almost 2 miles to Eastbourne’s Victorian pier. In the summer it comes alive with the popular Airborne at Eastbourne together with the AEGON International Tennis, a tournament which attracts many of the world’s top tennis players just prior to Wimbledon. The tournament in Devonshire Park is directly behind the apartment. Set next to Beachy Head, Eastbourne also has some of the best award-winning beaches along the south coast, so with its excellent sunshine record, makes for a wonderful holiday destination.
A short distance to the east is the Sovereign Harbour Marina with many prestigious yachts moored. Beachy Head is a magnificent backdrop with its dramatic chalk cliffs and gently undulating Downs. It is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and marks the start of the 100-mile South Downs Way and the South Downs National Park. The white cliffs would not be complete without mention of the Beachy Head Lighthouse, one of the most recognisable sites in England. A short distance further west is the Belle Toute Lighthouse, an impressive sight on top of the chalk cliffs. It looks down on the small community at Birling Gap which sadly is disappearing through cliff erosion. Heading west from Birling Gap, the chalk cliffs rise towards the famous Seven Sisters, one of the most photographed views in England, before reaching the river estuary at Cuckmere Haven where the ox-bow lakes within the river are perfect for canoeing and kayaking. To the east of Eastbourne, Pevensey and Pevensey Castle are on the edge of the Pevensey Levels, another Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and important for its birdlife and wildlife. The Levels are bordered to the north by the small town of Hailsham where there is the magnificent castle at Herstmonceux as well as the Observatory Science Centre close to Hailsham. Beach 100 yards.
