This first-floor apartment sits minutes from the beach and town, with a clear sea view from the lounge. Offered with no onward chain and a virtual tour available, it’s ready for an early viewing and quick move. The flat forms part of an end-terrace building constructed circa 1900–1929, showing period features such as high ceilings and exposed brick.
Internally the accommodation includes two bedrooms, a lounge/diner, kitchen, bathroom and a utility room. The layout is traditional and the space is described as average-sized (around 779 sq ft), offering practical room proportions for a first home or rental. Heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators and glazing is double; broadband and mobile signals are reported as good.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with 900 years remaining and a share of freehold, and it benefits from communal off-street parking. The building is likely solid brick with no known cavity insulation, so future improvements (insulation, cosmetic updating) may be considered to improve comfort and efficiency. Council tax is very low, which reduces ongoing costs.
Location strengths include close proximity to good-rated primary and secondary schools, local amenities and public transport. Material considerations: the immediate area is classified as very deprived with higher local crime rates, which may influence suitability and resale expectations. Buyers should note the single bathroom and that some cosmetic or energy-efficiency upgrades may be required depending on their plans.
