Summary - Apartment 12, Maritime House, West Way DT5 2NT
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Second-floor coastal flat with lift access and close shoreline walks.
Sea views from a large double-glazed window
Set on the second floor with lift access, this compact one-bedroom studio offers direct sea glimpses and a bright, double-glazed main window. The open-plan living/kitchenette makes efficient use of the 388 sq ft, providing defined sleeping space and a separate shower room. Service charge and insurance are covered in the annual charge of £940 and a nominal £1 ground rent; the lease has long term security with around 109 years remaining.
This apartment suits a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor seeking low-entry coastal property in Portland. The building’s distinctive mid-century/Art Deco character and proximity to shoreline walks, local cafes and Easton Square give it holiday-let and rental appeal. Communal forecourt parking and lift access add practical convenience for residents and visitors.
Notable practical points: heating is by electric room heaters and the cavity walls are assumed to lack insulation, so running costs and comfort levels may be higher than modern-equivalent homes. Broadband speeds are reported as slow. There is no private outdoor space; outside areas are communal and mainly forecourt/parking. Buyers should verify lease and service charge details with their solicitor before committing.
Overall this is a straightforward, well-located starter apartment with coastal appeal and clear scope for modest upgrades (heating, insulation, kitchen enhancements) to increase comfort and rental value.
