Summary - 460A MARINE ROAD EAST MORECAMBE LA4 6AE
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free, long-lease retirement flat moments from the beach.
Sea views from lounge and main bedroom
Set on the ground floor of a Victorian block on Marine Road East, this well-presented two-bedroom apartment delivers coastal living with immediate beach access and sea views from principal rooms. The layout is traditional and practical, with a spacious lounge, modern fitted kitchen and a small front patio — ideal for morning sea air or a quiet cup of tea.
The property is offered chain-free and sits on a very long lease (992 years remaining), making it straightforward to purchase. Heating is gas-fired via a boiler and radiators; many rooms are carpeted and double glazed (installed before 2002). The apartment is presented neutrally and appears move-in ready for retirees or downsizers seeking a low-hassle home by the sea.
Notable factors to consider are the high local flood risk and the building’s older construction (1930s–1940s sandstone walls with assumed no insulation). The glazing predates 2002 and the area is described as deprived, which may influence insurance costs, resale profile and long-term maintenance. Council tax is modest (Band B).
Overall this is a practical, comfortable retirement or downsizing option for someone prioritising coastal location, convenience to local shops and transport links, and the simplicity of ground-floor living. It also presents potential as a holiday-let or investment subject to local market and flood-insurance considerations.
