This top-floor one-bedroom apartment offers a compact, well-presented living space in a converted Victorian building close to Hornsea town centre and the seafront. Its open-plan layout and roof window in the converted attic maximise light and make the most of limited square footage, creating a cosy, low-maintenance home or rental unit.
For investors the numbers are straightforward: the property was previously let at £495 pcm, equating to a gross yield of 9.9%. The long lease (988 years) and allocated off-street parking add practical value, while an EPC rating of C and gas central heating keep running costs reasonable. Service charge is £529 per year and council tax is very cheap, supporting affordability.
For first-time buyers this apartment provides an affordable entry into the local market with easy access to shops, cafes, schools rated ‘Good’, and the beach within walking distance. The building retains period character externally, and the flat’s compact scale makes it suitable for single occupancy or a couple looking for a simple, central base.
Be clear about limitations: the accommodation is small and ceiling heights are lower in the converted attic bedroom, so space is best suited to minimal or space-saving furnishings. The local area is classified as deprived and has average crime statistics; buyers should weigh neighbourhood factors alongside the strong yield potential. Overall, this is a pragmatic purchase for those prioritising location, rental return, and affordability over generous internal space.
