Top-floor one-bedroom apartment with fitted bedroom wardrobes
Short walk to Clacton seafront and promenade

Set on the top floor of the Martello Bay development, this one-bedroom apartment is a compact seafront opportunity a short walk from Clacton’s promenade and beach. The lounge and double-glazed bedroom provide light and decent storage with fitted wardrobes; allocated off-street parking is a practical extra for coastal living.
The flat is economical to run in some respects: council tax band B and below-average service charge are positives. Construction from the 1980s and double glazing offer basic thermal performance, but the property uses electric room heaters only — there’s no gas — and the EPC is D. Buyers should expect standard maintenance and some updating to décor and fittings.
Leasehold information is material: a 125-year lease was granted on 1 July 1996, with current ground rent around £100 per annum and service charge approximately £960 per annum. The building is a mid-terrace, purpose-built block with communal areas; there are no non-standard property features recorded.
This apartment will suit someone looking to downsize or buy a low-maintenance seaside base, and it also appeals to investors seeking an affordable coastal let. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the size, layout and proximity to the renewed seafront; purchasers should check broadband/mobile coverage and factor in leasehold costs and potential décor updates.
