A spacious two-bedroom flat on Ilfracombe High Street, arranged over three internal levels and offering sea views to the rear. At about 937 sq ft, the accommodation includes a large lounge, kitchen and two bedrooms — a rare size for a central first-floor flat. Its central location places Wildercombe Beach, the harbour and local amenities within easy walking distance, supporting strong rental demand in peak season.
The property is a clear renovation opportunity: it currently requires updating and has an EPC rating of E. Heating is by electric storage heaters, walls are original granite with no known insulation, and double glazing installation date is unknown. The flat is sold leasehold with about 96 years remaining — a usable but finite term that buyers should factor into mortgage or investment calculations.
This suits a buyer looking for a buy-to-let or a first-time purchase prepared to invest in improvements. The flat is currently tenanted, sold with no onward chain, and offers potential to increase income or capital value after refurbishment. Note the wider area has above-average crime and high deprivation indices, which may affect tenant profiles and long-term yield assumptions.
Practical positives include very low council tax (Band A), excellent mobile signal and a central High Street position that supports easy access to shops, transport and local attractions. Viewings are recommended for anyone seeking a sizeable seaside flat with clear scope for enhancement and rental return.
