Spacious two-bedroom apartment with sea views, garage and lift access.
Direct sea views from private balcony
Light-filled, elegant and classically proportioned, this two-bedroom apartment sits within a grand Victorian residence on Douglas Avenue and enjoys direct sea views from a private balcony. High ceilings, large windows and ornate period detail give the principal living rooms a roomy, gracious feel while a contemporary kitchen and bathroom provide practical, modern comfort.
Arranged off a communal entrance with an impressive turning staircase and lift, the apartment is especially well suited to buyers seeking a lower-maintenance, centrally located seaside home — ideal for downsizers who want space without the full burden of a house. Practical benefits include a private garage and parking, share of freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Buyers should note a few material points: the building is a Victorian granite construction likely without cavity insulation, which can mean higher heating demand and potential retrofit cost if improved insulation is desired. Heating runs on a mains gas community scheme, and there is a single bathroom for two bedrooms. As a period building, communal maintenance and repair responsibilities will apply under the share of freehold arrangement.
Positioned in an affluent, low-crime area with nearby beaches, parks and good primary schools, this apartment combines coastal outlook and period character with convenient transport and local amenities. It suits a buyer who values elegant living space, sea views and the convenience of a managed communal building, and who is comfortable with the upkeep considerations of a listed-style Victorian property.
