and live on Freeview channel 276
The complex of 12 affordable flats was built off-site in Newhaven by a specialist modular building company and transported to the site in Langney Road where they were fixed into place using a crane.
Councillor Alan Shuttleworth, cabinet member for housing at Eastbourne Borough Council, said, “It is fantastic to see another development of affordable homes from our Aspiration Homes partnership nearing completion as we continue to increase our housing supply for residents.

The design utilises Boutique Modern’s standard fabric first approach, maximising energy performance within each apartment through airtight construction and super insulation.
The housing scheme will also benefit from solar energy generation.
Residents should be able to move into the flats in October, according to the council.
