This spacious two-bedroom second-floor flat (approx. 1,034 sq ft) offers a comfortable, homely base close to Weston-super-Mare town centre. Bright rooms and hillside views create a pleasant living environment, while a well-presented kitchen and bathroom reduce immediate maintenance needs. One bedroom includes built-in wardrobes for convenience.
Practical day-to-day features include mains gas central heating, double glazing (installed before 2002), excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for working from home or streaming. The lease is long at 952 years with a low ground rent of £10 per year and shared maintenance costs split across three flats.
Buyers should note a few material drawbacks: the local area records high crime and very high deprivation levels, and parking is on-street only. The building’s original granite walls are assumed to have no insulation and the double glazing is older, so purchasers seeking higher energy efficiency may want to budget for upgrades. Overall, this property suits first-time buyers or downsizers seeking space and location with clear scope for improvement and long-term security on the lease.
