This first-floor two-bedroom flat in Moorland Road places seaside access, the train station and local shops within easy reach, making it a practical choice for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking rental demand. The layout includes two double bedrooms, a shower room and a generous open-plan kitchen/living room with a bay window that brings in natural light and period character from the Victorian build.
The property is sold via the Modern Method of Auction. Buyers should note this is leasehold and completion must occur within the auction reservation period. A Buyer Information Pack is available for £349 (inc. VAT) and a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% of the purchase price (minimum £6,600 inc. VAT) is payable by the successful bidder in addition to the purchase price. If you plan to use a mortgage, confirm lending eligibility before bidding.
Internally the flat shows a mixture of period features and basic contemporary fittings; the kitchen/living area will benefit from modernisation to bring the finish up to date. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the building has older double glazing and assumed uninsulated stone walls — energy improvements would reduce running costs. The area is relatively deprived and crime is above average, but local schools and transport links are close by, which supports both family occupation and rental appeal.
Overall this is an average-sized, centrally located flat with character and clear potential for improvement. It suits a buyer who understands auction terms and is prepared to invest in energy efficiency and cosmetic upgrades to capture longer-term value.
