Four bedrooms within 791 sq ft (single bathroom)

Communal rear garden and small front garden
Early 1900s solid brick; likely no cavity insulation
Area very deprived with very high local crime levels

This bright first-floor maisonette sits on Alma Road with the Blue Flag beach a short walk one way and the town centre the other. Arranged over two floors, the property offers four bedrooms and a newly fitted kitchen with some built-in appliances — ready for immediate occupation for a first-time buyer or to let for an investor.
Practical positives include a communal rear garden, double glazing, gas central heating and 107 years remaining on the lease; the sale is chain free. At about 791 sq ft, the layout suits a growing family or a buy-to-let opportunity that can command local demand thanks to seaside position and fast broadband/mobile coverage.
Be clear on the material drawbacks: the wider area is very deprived with very high crime levels reported, which will affect long-term desirability and rental values. The building is an early 20th-century solid-brick terrace likely without cavity insulation, so buyers should budget for possible thermal upgrades and ongoing maintenance. There is a single bathroom for four bedrooms and the property is leasehold (share of freehold to be arranged). All services and appliances should be independently checked.
Overall this maisonette offers immediate move-in convenience and clear refurbishment potential in a seaside town location. It will suit a hands-on first-time buyer wanting value close to amenities and the beach, or an investor prepared to factor local area challenges into yield calculations.
