A lower-ground, two-bedroom apartment with private rear garden and a brand-new 125-year lease — a compact coastal base a short walk from the seafront. The open-plan kitchen/living room is bright and modern, and the principal bedroom is a comfortable double. Gas central heating, an EPC rating of C and recently refreshed interior make the property move-in ready for many buyers.
This home suits first-time buyers, buy-to-let investors or holiday-home buyers seeking seaside access without the premium price. The apartment’s modest footprint (approx. 536 sq ft) and straightforward layout offer easy maintenance and good rental potential in a popular coastal location.
Be clear about the drawbacks: the neighbourhood has high crime and significant area deprivation, and broadband speeds are slow. The building is older (pre-1900) with assumed solid brick walls and no built-in insulation, so heating costs and thermal comfort may be higher than modern stock. The lower-ground position means reduced street-level outlook and may be darker than upper-floor flats.
Overall, this is an affordable coastal flat with a rare private garden and long lease — best for buyers prioritising location and value over space and ultra-fast connectivity. Due diligence on local safety, insulation improvements and service checks is recommended before committing.
