A well-kept, ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in a quiet Norman Crescent cul-de-sac, ideal for retirement living or downsizing. The flat sits in a small purpose-built development (2003) a short walk — about half a mile — from Budleigh Salterton town centre and the seafront. The living room is generous for the footprint and the kitchen, bathroom and en-suite are modern and thoughtfully updated.
Practical features suit a low‑maintenance lifestyle: UPVC double glazing, laminated floors, allocated off-street parking and a small shared garden. The property is offered with no onward chain and benefits from a long lease (about 127 years remaining) and an EPC rating of C.
Important financial and comfort points to note: heating is by Economy 7 electric storage heaters, which can be more costly than gas for some users. As a leasehold apartment there are ongoing costs — an annualised service charge around £1,120.72 and ground rent roughly £335.42 per year — and short-term holiday lets are not permitted. The interior footprint is compact (approximately 498 sq ft), so it suits buyers ready to downsize or seeking a low-upkeep second home rather than those needing lots of living space.
Overall this is a tidy, move‑in ready ground-floor flat in a very low-crime, comfortable neighbourhood. It will particularly suit retirees or downsizers wanting proximity to seaside amenities, good local shops and straightforward, manageable maintenance responsibilities.
