Immaculate two-bedroom fourth-floor flat with balcony, parking and long lease near the seafront..
No onward chain — immediate completion possible
No chain and a lift-served fourth-floor position make this two-double-bedroom flat an easy move-in option for buyers seeking seaside proximity. The living room opens onto a private balcony with views over Ellenborough Park and glimpses of the seafront, while a generous kitchen and storage in the entrance hall keep daily life practical. Allocated off-street parking and communal visitor spaces add convenience in an area where parking can be limited.
The flat is presented in immaculate condition and benefits from a very long lease (remainder of a 999-year term from 1971) and no ground rent. The shower room has an accessible walk-in bath with shower over, appealing for anyone wanting step-free bathing. Double glazing (installed before 2002) and electric storage heaters provide basic thermal comfort but are dated compared with modern systems.
Buyers should note the material costs: a biannual service charge totalling £1,920 per year, electric-only heating (storage heaters and instant hot water), and older double glazing which may merit future upgrade. The building dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s and sits in a part of town with higher-than-average crime and significant local deprivation—factors to weigh alongside the seaside location and transport links.
Overall this is a practical, low-maintenance coastal flat suited to first-time buyers or downsizers who prioritise location, long lease security and ready-to-live-in accommodation, while being comfortable planning modest updates to heating, glazing or communal finishes over time.
