Eastbourne telephone box up for auction with £23k starting bid

A former telephone box by Eastbourne pier is set to go under the hammer with a starting bid of £23,000.

Property auctioneers Pattinson have listed the kiosk for online auction until 2pm on 18 November.

The property comes with planning permission granted by Eastbourne Borough Council to convert into a takeaway. Approved operating hours are set from 7.30am to 7.30pm, seven days a week, subject to conditions.

Pattinson say: “Expert Property Shop is pleased to offer this distinctive former telephone kiosk, combining nostalgic charm with an exciting business opportunity in a picturesque seafront setting.

"Situated on the east side of Eastbourne Pier, the kiosk enjoys stunning sea views and is well positioned to attract passing trade from visitors and those enjoying the promenade.

“With power already connected and takeaway consent secured, the site is marketed as an appealing venture for an owner-operator or investor looking to establish a niche business along the promenade.”

The planning decision notice and associated conditions are available for inspection, they say.
