This newly renovated two‑bedroom basement flat on the Marina offers stylish coastal living with practical space and a long new lease. The open‑plan lounge/kitchen and contemporary fittings give a move‑in ready feel, while two private courtyards extend the living space for outdoor relaxing or small‑scale entertaining. The flat’s generous room sizes and period bay window bring character and natural light to the principal rooms.
Practical running notes are straightforward: the property is electric‑heated via room heaters and runs on electricity as the main fuel, with double glazing but assumed solid‑brick walls with no added cavity insulation. Service charges (around £1,200 pa) and a nominal ground rent (£10) apply. The lease is brand new and long at approximately 130 years — favourable for mortgage and resale prospects.
Location is a key selling point — seafront position close to local amenities and transport links, good mobile signal and nearby schools rated Good. However, the immediate area registers high crime levels and is classed as very deprived; buyers should weigh neighbourhood factors and practical security measures. Broadband speeds are reported slow, which may affect remote working without alternative solutions.
Overall this flat suits buyers wanting a stylish, ready‑to‑occupy coastal home with permission for outdoor space in the form of two courtyards, or investors seeking a desirable seafront asset. Be aware of the basement setting, electric heating, local area challenges and the recommendation to commission independent surveys for services and structure.
