Summary - Flat 3, 22 Suffolk Place CF36 3EA
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Affordable seaside entry for first-time buyers or investors close to town.
Second-floor two-bedroom flat, approximately 506 sq ft
Located on the second floor of a Victorian terrace, this compact two-bedroom flat offers an affordable entry into Porthcawl living. The home includes a comfortable lounge, a modern kitchen and a bathroom, all arranged across a modest 506 sq ft — practical for a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor seeking straightforward accommodation near the town and coastline.
Stand-out benefits include immediate proximity to Porthcawl town centre and the seafront, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing, and a long lease (approximately 151 years remaining). Council tax is described as affordable, and local mobile and broadband connections are good, supporting both everyday living and rental appeal.
There are important facts to note: the property sits in an area recorded as very deprived with a high local crime rate, and the building’s timber-frame walls are assumed to lack insulation, which could affect energy efficiency and running costs. The overall footprint is small and one bedroom is notably compact, so internal space is limited. Leasehold ownership may incur additional fees (lease packs, etc.). Prospective buyers should commission a full survey and service checks on utilities and structural elements before committing.
For a buyer prioritising affordability and location over space, this flat represents a practical opportunity to secure a foothold in Porthcawl or to add to a rental portfolio. The property’s period character and seaside access give it clear lifestyle and letting potential, while the renovation or insulation upgrading potential offers scope to add value over time.
