Police entered the premises and executed a Misuse of Drugs Act warrant at around 6pm.
The small amount of drugs already analysed have been given a street value of 5,500.
Police say it is "just a fraction" of the total.
Detective Inspector Mark Ling of Rother CID confirmed it was the largest haul of drugs to be captured in Bexhill for some time and estimated the total seizure to have a value of around 75,000.
He said the seizure was part of an on-going drugs investigation.
