Set within an elegant Georgian terrace, this second-floor apartment offers bright, characterful accommodation and uninterrupted south-facing sea views. High ceilings and large sash windows flood the rooms with light, while the well-kept communal gardens and croquet lawn provide a peaceful, leafy outlook ideal for a seaside retreat or full-time residence.
Practical strengths include a very long lease with share of freehold, two double bedrooms, and resident permit on-street parking. The building’s period stone construction and tasteful interior make the flat low-effort to move into, attractive for downsizers wanting charm without heavy renovation.
Notable considerations: heating is by electric storage radiators, which can be costly compared with gas; walls are original granite/whinstone and likely lack cavity insulation; broadband speeds are average; there is no private garden and pets are not permitted. Service charge runs at about £2,316 per year, and council tax is moderate—important running costs to factor in.
Overall, this apartment suits buyers seeking seaside character, easy access to Sidmouth’s amenities, and communal outdoor space rather than private grounds. The long lease and share of freehold reduce tenure risk, making it a credible option for downsizers or investors after a well-presented period flat.
