Summary -
FLAT 6 ,NEWLANDS COURT,40 GEORGE STREET,RYDE,PO33 2EN
PO33 2FE
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact two-bedroom top-floor flat with sea views and long lease, close to town and Esplanade..
Bedroom with sea views of the Solent
Vacant possession — immediate occupancy possible
Long lease: 980 years remaining
Service charge approximately £1,300 per year
Compact 518 sq ft top-floor apartment
EPC rating F — low energy efficiency
Electric storage heating throughout
Located in an area with very high crime and deprivation
This top-floor two-bedroom apartment sits a short walk from Ryde Town Centre and the Esplanade, with a bedroom window framing views across the Solent to the mainland. The flat is offered with vacant possession and benefits from a video entry system, communal courtyard and dedicated bicycle storage — practical features for an active, low-maintenance lifestyle.
Internally the layout is traditional and compact (approximately 518 sq ft). The living room opens to a separate kitchen; two double bedrooms include the larger room with the sea view. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the bathroom has a simple three-piece suite with a Velux window. The long lease (980 years remaining) removes a common leasehold concern for buyers.
There are clear compromises to note. The Energy Performance Certificate is F and the building sits in an area recorded as very deprived with a very high local crime rate — factors that will affect running costs, insurance and resale values. The annual service charge is about £1,300 and the flat is small, so it suits buyers seeking convenience and proximity to seafront and town rather than large living spaces.
This property will suit a downsizer or buyer wanting a seaside pied-à-terre who prioritises location and a secure communal entry over modern energy efficiency. It may also appeal to someone willing to invest in targeted upgrades to improve comfort and EPC rating.
