Top-floor one-bedroom flat overlooking Burnham-On-Sea’s seafront, offering a large lounge, separate kitchen and useful built-in storage. The apartment sits in a mid-20th-century block with resident off-street parking and a long lease (over 2,000 years recorded). Double glazing and electric heating keep running costs simple, and the location is a short walk to the town centre and local amenities.
This property suits a first-time buyer seeking a seaside starter home or an investor looking for a straightforward lettable unit. The generous lounge and sea-facing windows are stand-out features for holiday-style letting or personal enjoyment; the layout provides practical storage and a double bedroom with a built-in wardrobe.
Buyers should note material points plainly: the flat is leasehold with an annual service charge of about £1,000 and a £10 ground rent. Heating is electric rather than gas, which can be more expensive to run. The wider area is relatively deprived with above-average local crime statistics, and communal access from the stairway restricts private entrance options.
Internally the building and flat appear serviceable but show signs that cosmetic refurbishment would improve comfort and rental value (images indicate peeling paint and potential damp patches). Broadband and mobile coverage are average. There’s been no flooding reported in the last five years. Overall this is a practical, well-located coastal flat with clear potential after modest updating, but buyers should budget for ongoing service charges and likely redecoration or minor repairs.
