A bright one-bedroom apartment on The Colonnade occupying a prime seafront position with full coastal outlook. The open-plan living room stretches to a full-width balcony, bringing in natural light and uninterrupted sea views — a strong selling point for a low-maintenance seaside retreat or rental.
The apartment offers generous room proportions for its size: a double bedroom with balcony access, a fitted kitchen and a separate bathroom. The property is presented tidy and ready to occupy, though modest modernisation of kitchen and bathroom could increase value and rental returns.
Practical details suit secure longer-term ownership: leasehold with approximately 177 years remaining. Note the local context — immediate beach access, shops and a mainline station are nearby, but the neighbourhood records high crime levels and sits in a very deprived area, which can affect insurance, resale and tenant demand. Broadband speeds are average and street/traffic noise is noticeable from the seafront location.
Overall this is a straightforward coastal buy: ideal for a first-time buyer seeking seaside living or an investor after a low-upkeep rental. The combination of sea views, balcony and long lease are clear positives; buyers should factor in the surrounding area's social statistics and the potential uplift from cosmetic updating.
