Set above the High Street in Southwold, this well-presented one-bedroom first-floor apartment suits investors seeking a proven holiday let or buyers wanting a coastal bolthole. The main reception is bright and spacious with a large bay window, high ceilings and a decorative Italian marble fireplace that gives the room period character. The open-plan layout incorporates a contemporary kitchen and timber floors, creating immediate rental appeal and easy liveability.
The double bedroom is a comfortable size and the quirky shower room is compact but functional. The property comes with vacant possession and a very long 999-year lease, simplifying purchase and lettings. Double glazing has been installed and the apartment benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for holiday bookings and remote working.
Buyers should note the building is of solid brick construction (likely without wall insulation) and heating is electric via a boiler and radiators, which can be more expensive than gas. Some maintenance or upgrading could improve energy efficiency and long‑term running costs. Fixtures, services and appliances have not been tested and some chattels can be included in the sale.
This central location places shops, cafes and transport close at hand, helping sustain short‑term rental demand. For investors the ready-made track record as a successful holiday let and vacant possession make this an easy-add to a portfolio; for buyers seeking a weekend base, the apartment offers an attractive, low‑maintenance base in a sought-after coastal town.
