Set on the seafront of Undercliff Gardens, this spacious two-bedroom apartment delivers wide sea views from a south-facing balcony and a generous open-plan lounge/diner. At about 945 sq ft the layout suits those wanting comfortable, low-maintenance coastal living with a well-appointed bespoke farmhouse-style kitchen and two bathrooms, including an ensuite.• The property includes two allocated off-street parking spaces and well-kept communal gardens, a rare convenience in this location.
Practical ownership is straightforward: share of freehold with an exceptionally long 954-year lease and a nominal £1 ground rent. Service charges are around £175 pcm (circa £2,100pa) with a small annual sinking fund contribution. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed though the installation date is not confirmed.
Highlights are balanced by a few factual considerations. The building dates from the late 1960s–1970s and external walls are assumed to be cavity with no added insulation, so buyers should factor potential energy-improvement work into future plans. The lease currently disallows pets. Local crime statistics are higher than average and council tax is above average for the area.
This apartment will suit downsizers or buyers seeking a stylish coastal base close to Leigh Broadway and Chalkwell station. It also offers good rental potential for investors given the location, sea views and nearby transport — but budget for ongoing service charges and any retrofit works if improved insulation or window replacements are desired.
