This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment sits in the heart of St Marychurch, a quiet, select development just steps from the pedestrianised village precinct. The open-plan sitting/dining room with French doors opens onto a private patio, while both double bedrooms also enjoy a second private patio — ideal for morning coffee or a sheltered seating area. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite wet room; a separate bathroom completes practical, single-level living.
Well-suited to downsizers and retirees seeking low-maintenance, central living, the home combines period character (high ceilings, Georgian-style exterior) with a modern fitted kitchen and gas central heating. Practical perks include allocated off-street parking, level access from parking, and a long lease (999 years from 2001). EPC C (77) reflects reasonable energy performance for a period building.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold with an annual service charge of £1,285 and is part of a professionally managed block. The original sandstone/limestone walls are likely uninsulated (typical of pre-1900 construction), which can affect heat retention compared with newer builds. The immediate area has pockets of higher deprivation, though local amenities, healthcare, clubs and coastal walks are exceptionally close by.
Overall this is a comfortable, well-positioned apartment offering peaceful, low-maintenance living with easy access to shops, cafes and coastal leisure — a practical choice for those wanting village convenience without stairs or garden upkeep.
