The coastal retreat where TV presenter Paula Yates found peace in the months before her death has been sold.
The three-storey Georgian building has been sold for slightly more than the £175,000 asking price to a London buyer.
Up to 40 interested parties looked around the Grade II listed property in Ebenezer Road, Hastings, after it was placed on the market last month.
Former Big Breakfast presenter Miss Yates, 40, used it as a weekend retreat for eight months until her death from a drugs overdose last year.
Richard Smallman, senior negotiator at John Bray and Sons in High Street, Hastings, said: "The level of interest was above our expectations, which I partly suspect was because of the Paula Yates angle."
