This bay-fronted two-bedroom end-terrace sits centrally in Mablethorpe, a short walk from the beach and town amenities. The house offers a comfortable, well-presented interior with original period touches and practical modern upgrades such as double glazing, mains gas central heating and photovoltaic solar panels that reduce running costs.
Layout suits a first home or coastal bolt-hole: a generous reception and separate dining room open off the entrance hall, with an extended kitchen and ground-floor bathroom. Two privately enclosed rear gardens (paved and shingled) provide low-maintenance outdoor space and a timber summerhouse with rear access onto Alexandra Park.
Highlights for practical buyers include freehold tenure, very low council tax banding and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity. The property’s compact 817 sq ft footprint and modest second bedroom make it especially suitable for singles, couples or buyers seeking a manageable seaside home.
Be straightforward about the drawbacks: the surrounding neighbourhood shows signs of deprivation and recorded crime is above average for the area. The property’s cavity walls are recorded as having no insulation (assumed), and some buyers may want to budget for energy-efficiency improvements or an updated survey. Prospective purchasers should verify all services, fixtures and the electrical/plumbing condition with their solicitor or surveyor.
