2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free two-bedroom top-floor flat with castle views — needs updating and lease attention..
Top-floor two double bedrooms with castle views
Set over the top floor, this chain-free two double bedroom flat delivers bright rooms and clear castle views from the front windows. The layout includes a large lounge/diner, kitchen, bathroom, separate WC and useful built-in storage — an accessible city-centre location a short walk from shops, the seafront and Priory station.
The property is sold with 82 years remaining on the lease; this will require prompt attention or a lease extension before long. The flat needs updating throughout — cosmetic and mechanical modernisation likely required — and has electric storage heaters and an E (43) energy rating, which buyers should factor into running costs.
Service charge and ground rent are modest (service charge circa £1,043.75 pa; ground rent £10 pa), but the wider area records very high crime levels and marked deprivation. For buyers prioritising location and rental potential, the flat represents value after refurbishment; for owner-occupiers, realistic budgeting for works and lease renewal is essential.
Suitable as a buy-to-let or for a first-time buyer seeking a project in a highly connected town centre, this home offers immediate occupation but clear renovation tasks. Legal checks are advised on lease details and long-term costs before purchase.
