Old Town sits within Bexhill, and the neighbourhoods that make it up share a strong coastal identity: mild, sunny weather, good air quality and crime rates that run well below the national average, with most areas seeing figures fall further year on year. Schools are a real strength throughout, with Good and Outstanding-rated primaries, including St Mary's, Chantry Primary and St Peter and St Paul CofE Primary, dotted across the area, plus St Richard's Catholic College for secondary pupils. Healthcare provision is solid too, with GP practices, dentists and hospitals either within the neighbourhoods themselves or a short trip away. Housing and amenities vary a fair bit depending on which part of Old Town you're looking at. Bexhill Sackville and Bexhill Old Town & Worsham offer a good spread of everyday amenities, from restaurants and coffee shops to supermarkets, right on the doorstep, while Bexhill St Stephens and Bexhill Kewhurst keep daily essentials a short journey away rather than within the immediate area. Prices reflect this too: flats in Sackville start from around £187,000, making it one of the more affordable spots, while detached homes in Kewhurst sit around £509,000 and terraced properties in Old Town & Worsham command a premium. Across the suburb, houses tend to hold their value better than flats, which generally offer the cheapest way in. Transport links are consistent across the area, relying on bus services, the A259 for driving to Hastings and Eastbourne, and nearby railway stations connecting to both towns. Over 30% of residents in some neighbourhoods now work from home, reflecting a settled, community-focused character that runs throughout Old Town. Whether you're drawn to the fuller amenities of Sackville, the quiet residential feel of St Stephens, or the premium coastal living of Collington, this is an area that suits families and buyers looking for a stable, long-term home by the sea.
