A rare duplex penthouse in Passage Close, just a stone’s throw from Chesil Beach, offering expansive sea views from two private balconies. Arranged over two floors, the apartment provides unusually generous living space for a coastal flat: a large vaulted reception with exposed beams upstairs, and three double bedrooms below. The property suits a seaside main home, a lock‑up‑and‑leave retreat, or a buy‑to‑let in a popular coastal location.
Practical features include a single garage, long lease (981 years) and no onward chain, simplifying purchase. The kitchen is sociable with a breakfast bar, and built‑in storage is provided in the bedrooms. Large windows and the elevated position deliver good natural light and outlook over the coastline.
Buyers should note material facts: the property is leasehold with a small annual ground rent (£100) and council tax at an above‑average band. Heating is electric via room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can affect running costs. The block provides limited external garden/ground amenity, so outdoor space is mainly the balconies and nearby beach.
Overall this is a well‑appointed, characterful penthouse with strong coastal appeal and flexible uses. Its size and views set it apart from typical flats in the area, but prospective buyers should factor in electric heating and service/ownership costs related to leasehold living.
