A compact ground-floor apartment offering straightforward, contemporary accommodation ideal for investors or first-time buyers seeking rental income. The open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining area and a generous double bedroom are well-lit and finished in neutral tones. Fixed safety upgrades include UPVC double glazing and fire doors throughout, and the long 999-year lease removes typical lease-length concerns.
The property has a successful holiday-let track record, reportedly generating £1,500–£2,000 per month, making it attractive to short-term rental operators or landlords seeking immediate income. Its location is very close to the seafront and a short walk from the railway station, supporting tourist demand and commuter access.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the building is in a neighbourhood with very high crime levels and the wider area is classed as very deprived, which can affect tenant demand and resale values. The unit will be sold at auction and is leasehold; the sale is subject to online bidding terms and conditions. The property has not been independently inspected, so purchasers should allow for a professional survey and full checks before bidding.
