2 Church Street is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Old Town, Eastbourne, Eastbourne (BN21 1HT). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C.

When first surveyed in October 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since.
