Set within the converted Temperance Hotel just off Crinnicks Hill, this one-bedroom flat blends period character with compact, modern living. The apartment occupies 431 sq ft and is accessed via a private courtyard, offering a secure entrance and a quiet feel despite a central town location. Exposed stone and rustic detailing provide charm alongside a contemporary open-plan kitchenette and living area.
Practical features include double glazing, electric storage heating and a very long lease with share of freehold—strong ownership security for a flat of this age. Service charges are low, and council tax is described as very cheap, helping running costs remain modest. There is no flood risk and broadband and mobile signals are average for the area.
Important considerations: the building dates from before 1900 with granite walls that are assumed to have no insulation, and heating is electric storage radiators which can be costly to run. The wider area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime rates, so buyers should weigh location factors alongside price and internal condition.
This apartment will suit first-time buyers seeking an affordable town-base with character, or investors looking for a lower-entry purchase with potential to improve energy efficiency and modernise finishes. Viewings are recommended to judge room sizes and the scope for upgrading heating and insulation.
