A spacious ground-floor apartment offering coastal living with practical conveniences. The property features two double bedrooms, a principal en-suite with walk-in wet room, and an open lounge/diner that opens onto a large private terrace with sea views — ideal for outdoor relaxing or entertaining. Own access and off-road parking add independence and ease for day-to-day life.
Ownership is secure: share of freehold with a long lease (984 years) and no onward chain, making purchase straightforward for those downsizing. The apartment measures approximately 1,153 sq ft, giving generous internal space and scope to adapt rooms to suit changing needs.
Buyers should note the running costs and local conditions: an average service charge of £1,600 and moderate council tax apply. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, and local crime statistics are very high; these factors may affect suitability depending on priorities. The wider neighbourhood mixes communal retirement settings with student areas and shows significant deprivation in parts.
Local schooling includes a number of well-rated secondary options nearby, including two grammar schools ranked highly, though some primary provision is mixed. Overall, this apartment suits downsizers seeking roomy, low-maintenance coastal accommodation with secure tenure and private outdoor space, provided they accept local social and connectivity limitations.
