Set on the ground floor of an attractive Edwardian block, this recently redecorated two-bedroom apartment offers a bright living/dining room with a bay window and high ceilings. The layout is traditional and practical, with a fitted kitchen, modern bathroom and two double bedrooms — ready to occupy or rent immediately.
The property is chain-free with vacant possession, making it suitable for first-time buyers seeking a straightforward move or investors after a buy-to-let opportunity. The long lease (168 years remaining) and allocated off-street parking are strong tenure and convenience advantages in this central location close to town, Westbourne, bus routes and the seafront.
Practical considerations: the flat is small at around 547 sq ft and sits in an area with above-average crime, so downsizers or buyers seeking maximum living space should note the footprint. The service charge is relatively high at £2,676 pa; there is no ground rent. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators and the building retains period character with double glazing of unknown installation date.
Overall this is a well-presented, low-hassle purchase with clear rental potential and easy access to local amenities and schools. Buyers should satisfy themselves on building-specific details, electrical and heating checks, and factor the service charge into running costs.
