Looking for a property full of history with sea views and a layout that offers both space and separation? This two bedroom split-level apartment in Helena Court combines period architecture with practical living in a landmark St Leonards building.
Tucked away on the upper levels of Helena Court, this split-level apartment offers a sense of space and character throughout. With two double bedrooms, a generous open-plan living and dining area, and a separate modern kitchen, the layout works well for those who value both practicality and a touch of architectural charm. Built in 1884 by the Admiralty to house retired naval captains, Helena Court holds a long-standing place in local history. Originally a grand row of terraced houses, the property was positioned to take advantage of sea views from what was then the front of the building. Helena Court remains the highest point in St Leonards, clearly visible from the seafront. Used as barracks during the First World War, the building suffered significant damage and underwent major repairs in the years that followed. The east wing was converted into flats during the 1920s, creating a unique mix of period features and 20th-century layout changes that are still present today. Inside the apartment, light flows easily between rooms, helped by generous windows and high ceilings.
The main living area benefits from sea glimpses and has been kept simple in style, allowing the character of the building to do most of the talking. The kitchen is separate but close enough to feel connected to the living space, ideal for low-key entertaining or quiet evenings in. Both bedrooms are well proportioned, and the split-level arrangement adds a sense of privacy and flow not often found in similar flats.
A rare opportunity to buy into a building with local significance, in a position that feels just a little removed from the busy seafront but close enough to enjoy it.
