Set on a prominent corner of Portobello, this second-floor Victorian tenement flat delivers bright open-plan living and direct proximity to the beach and promenade. High ceilings, period bay windows and generous principal bedroom bring character and a sense of space despite the overall compact footprint (approx. 521 sqft). The kitchen/lounge with breakfast bar suits modern daily life and social cooking.
Practical comforts include gas central heating, double glazing and an Energy Rating C, making the apartment ready for immediate occupation or rental. There is access to a well-kept communal garden and no factoring charges are associated with the property. Council tax is described as very cheap, and broadband and mobile signals are strong.
Material considerations: the flat is relatively small and any private external space is limited or communal only. The location’s busy corner position may bring traffic and junction noise; the wider area is classified as very deprived, which can affect long-term resale or rental perceptions. Buyers should confirm communal maintenance responsibilities and the unusual freehold tenure for a flat as part of survey/legal checks.
This home will suit buyers seeking seaside living with period character close to local amenities, first-time purchasers wanting a move-in-ready urban flat, or investors targeting strong rental demand in Portobello. It offers immediate enjoyment and clear potential, balanced by the need to consider external noise, communal upkeep and limited private outdoor space.
