## Description

Looking for a large two-bedroom apartment with sea views close to Hastings station? This 1146 sq.ft Linton Road home is chain free and set in a convenient town location.

This two-bedroom apartment on Linton Road, Hastings, offers a generous amount of space, measuring around 1146 sq.ft. Set within a well-regarded area close to the town centre, the apartment combines size, sea views, and convenience, with the added benefit of being offered chain free.

The layout provides plenty of room to work with. The main living area looks out towards the sea, giving a sense of openness and light. Both bedrooms are well sized, allowing flexibility for family, guests, or a home office. The kitchen and bathroom are separate, and while some buyers may look to update, the flat is well maintained and ready to move into as it is. An additional benefit is the solid oak floors throughout, and sound proofing under floor. 

What stands out here is the scale of the property compared with many others in the area. At over 1100 sq.ft, the proportions create the feel of a home rather than just a flat.  The South East facing aspect with lovely views across Linton Gardens, the town to the sea beyond. 

This apartment would work well for someone looking for more space in a central location, or as a straightforward purchase without the complication of a chain.

## 1% Rule

- **Rent ratio:** 0.4% (weak for cashflow)
- **Max investor price (0.8%):** £137,500
- **Target investor price (1%):** £110,000

*Monthly rent ÷ price. 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak. Max investor price = rent ÷ 0.8% (Stoke-style target). Target investor price = rent ÷ 1% (strong cashflow band). Based on OpenRent comparables.*

## Rent-driven metrics

*Based on OpenRent comparables (median £1,100/mo).*

- **Gross yield:** 4.8%
- **Cost-to-rent:** 20.8×
- **Monthly cashflow:** £-118/mo (75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term)
- **Cash-on-cash ROI:** -1.8%

*Gross yield = annual rent as % of price (no costs). Cost-to-rent = price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables); under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed. Cashflow = rent − mortgage − 10% maintenance − £25/mo compliance; assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term. ROI = annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).*
