Summary - 15 FLAT 3 HIGHFIELD ROAD ILFRACOMBE EX34 9LZ
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Newly renovated two-bedroom first-floor flat — ideal starter home or buy-to-let in Ilfracombe..
Long lease (953 years) and low service charge (£900)
This well-presented two-bedroom first-floor flat offers a compact, move-in-ready option for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The apartment sits in a Victorian building on Highfield Road and benefits from a recently refurbished bathroom, double glazing and an elevated position that provides privacy and pleasant local views. A shared courtyard garden and separate utility room add practical outdoor and storage space.
Internally the flat is small at around 506 sq ft but arranged for everyday living: two bedrooms, a generous living room and a kitchen with good storage. The kitchen shows mid‑20th-century fittings and may suit buyers wanting cosmetic updating. The building’s granite walls were built before 1900 and are assumed uninsulated, which could mean higher heating needs unless insulated.
Practical details support ownership or letting: long lease (953 years), below-average service charge (£900) and very low council tax. Connectivity is good with excellent mobile signal and average broadband speeds. The location offers quick access to Ilfracombe’s harbour, shops and transport links and is close to popular beaches and Exmoor countryside.
Buyers should note material negatives clearly. The area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime, which may affect resale or rental yields. The flat is small and the kitchen reflects an older style, so some updating or insulation work may be desirable. Overall, the property represents a competitively priced, low-maintenance entry point into the Ilfracombe market for those prioritising location and a long lease.
