This compact one-bedroom apartment occupies a converted Edwardian building just seconds from Teignmouth town centre and the estuary. The home makes the most of its period features — high ceilings and arched windows — while Velux windows and an updated bathroom add contemporary comfort. At about 330 sq ft, it is a straightforward, low-maintenance choice for a first-time buyer or someone seeking a lock-up-and-leave seaside base.
The open-plan living and kitchen area is bright and efficient, suited to single occupancy or couples who value location over space. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, so working from home is feasible. The 981-year lease and modest ground rent (£200) give long-term security typical of converted flats, and council tax is very cheap.
Buyers should note material drawbacks clearly: the apartment is small and will suit those who do not need much living space. The local area is classified as very deprived with a high crime rate, which could affect perception and resell value. There is no flood risk to the property itself.
Overall, this is a value-led entry into Teignmouth living — characterful, well-presented and exceptionally close to amenities and the seafront. It suits first-time buyers or purchasers seeking a low-upkeep second home, provided they accept the compact size and local area challenges.
