This elevated two-bedroom apartment occupies a front-line position with panoramic sea views and a decked balcony — ideal for someone seeking coastal outlooks without immediate renovation work. The bright, open-plan living, dining and kitchen area features turreted glazing and integrated Neff appliances with granite worktops, creating a ready-to-enjoy entertaining space.
Both double bedrooms include en-suites, useful for flexible household arrangements or holiday letting. The property includes two allocated parking spaces behind electric gates, communal gardens, bike storage and a share of the freehold with a very long lease (999 years from 2004).
Important costs and practical points are factual: heating is by electric room heaters, broadband speeds are slow, and the annual service charge is £4,334 (above average). Council tax is in a high band. The immediate area combines affluent pockets with wider local economic deprivation, and the building was constructed in the 2007–2011 period.
Overall this apartment will suit downsizers or buyers wanting low-maintenance coastal living with strong sea views. It offers immediate curb appeal and rental potential, but budget for ongoing service charges, electric heating running costs and potentially improved internet connectivity.
