Immaculately presented interiors; open-plan living with patio doors
Heating via electric room heaters — higher running costs likely

Mid-20th-century block — communal maintenance responsibilities exist
Quiet, well-presented first-floor apartment offering easy coastal living in West Mersea. Two double bedrooms, dual balconies with sea views and a generous lounge create comfortable, low-maintenance accommodation ideal for downsizers seeking proximity to the village and shore. The apartment comes with an allocated garage, storage unit and parking space — uncommon extras for flats of this size.
The property is offered as a share of freehold with a very long lease (984 years), which gives security for future ownership and resale. Interiors are tidy and move-in ready, with built-in storage and a practical open-plan living area that takes advantage of natural light from patio doors to the main balcony.
Buyers should note the apartment’s heating is by electric room heaters and the glazing was fitted before 2002; these factors can mean higher running costs than gas-heated homes. Broadband speeds are reported slow locally. The block dates from the mid-20th century, so while it is well maintained, purchasers should budget for typical communal-maintenance items over time.
Overall this flat suits someone looking to downsize to a comfortable coastal location with strong local amenities, secure parking and long leasehold security. It also has straightforward rental potential for buyers considering an income let, due to its location and included garage.
