One spacious double bedroom; living room and separate kitchen
528 sq ft; compact, manageable one-bedroom layout
Leasehold with 102 years remaining; possible additional fees
Located close to train station, bus routes, shops and beaches
Area records high crime and very deprived indices — affects perception
Limited external amenity space; may need light cosmetic updating
This ground-floor one-bedroom flat offers clear value for first-time buyers or investors seeking a compact seaside property with allocated parking and sea views. The living room and double bedroom are generously proportioned for the size, and gas central heating plus double glazing provide basic comfort. Its 528 sq ft layout is straightforward and easy to manage.
The flat is leasehold with 102 years remaining — suitable for mortgage lenders but note there may be additional leasehold fees and administration costs. The block is a red-brick Victorian Revival style built circa 1996–2002; externally the building appears maintained, though the flat itself would likely benefit from light cosmetic updating to maximise rental or resale value.
Location is very convenient for local transport and amenities: Barry Docks train station, bus routes, shops, supermarkets, parks and beaches are all within walking distance. However, the immediate area records higher crime and significant deprivation scores, which will affect buyer perception and potentially lettings; buyers should consider this when valuing the property.
Practical details: allocated off-street parking to the rear, low council tax (Band A), no flood risk recorded, and mains gas boiler with radiator heating. Prospective purchasers should commission their own survey and check exact lease pack and service charges before committing.
