This freehold retail investment was subsequently sold to the tenant and originally comprised an attractive four storey mid-terrace late 19th century building, within a parade of similar properties. The shop, which covers the ground and basement, is let to an independent café and vinyl record specialist, trading as The Vinyl Frontier shop and café. Furthermore there are two modern flats above, arranged over the first, second and third floors, which are held under long leases.
The premises are situated in Grove Road, within the heart of one of the main retailing areas of Eastbourne’s town centre. This location, which is known as Little Chelsea, has over 50 independent retailers and some national chains, selling a wide range of goods and services from contemporary art to cafés and restaurants.
