Summary - 25 Old Shipyard Centre, West Bay DT6 4HG
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Ground-floor, two-bedroom seaside flat with long lease and communal gardens.
South-facing ground-floor flat close to esplanade and West Beach
Set just back from West Beach and the esplanade, this south-facing ground-floor flat offers seaside living with immediate access to West Bay’s harbour, cafes and promenade. The apartment’s ‘L’-shaped living/dining room, two double bedrooms and modern kitchen create a comfortable, single-level home that suits downsizers or retirees wanting low-stairs convenience.
Practical features include a wet room, uPVC double glazing, electric boiler with radiators, off-street parking (one permit included) and use of extensive communal gardens. The long lease (999 years from 1994, c.968 years remaining) with a share of freehold gives long-term security, while the manageable footprint (c.627 sq ft) keeps running and maintenance straightforward.
Buyers should note a few material drawbacks: the EPC is G and the building appears to lack cavity wall insulation, so heating costs may be higher than average. The service charge for 2024/25 is £2,205.82 and there are restrictions on some outside areas (covered seating and small courtyard are not part of the leasehold). Broadband speeds cited are limited (up to c.8Mbps) which may affect those needing fast home internet.
Overall this apartment is a practical seaside base for someone seeking a quiet, ground-floor home close to West Bay’s amenities and coastline, with clear scope to improve energy performance and personalise interiors.
