Spacious Victorian ground-floor flat with exclusive balcony and direct beach access.
Direct sea views and private covered balcony overlooking the beach
A rare ground-floor apartment in a prominent Victorian building with direct sea views and beach access just yards away. The flat occupies a generous footprint (approx. 1,073 sq ft) with an L-shaped living/dining room opening onto an exclusive, covered balcony that frames the headland and open sea — ideal for quiet mornings or easy entertaining. Two double bedrooms, a spacious kitchen and a bathroom provide comfortable, single-level living suited to retirement or second-home use.
The building was formerly a hotel and retains period character: tall ceilings, large windows and ornate external detailing. The flat benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and private use of the original main entrance. Communal terraced gardens and a cellar store add useful outside space and storage.
Notable practical points are straightforward: the property is freehold while communal areas are held by a residents’ management company, with a quarterly service charge agreed at the AGM. The current arrangements do not permit commercial holiday letting (second-home or assured shorthold tenancy is allowed). Broadband is very slow in the area and walls are timber-frame with no known insulation, so buyers should factor potential improvement costs.
This property will suit someone seeking a peaceful coastal lifestyle, retirees wanting single-floor, spacious accommodation, or buyers seeking a stylish seaside second home. A survey is recommended given the building’s age and construction type; purchasers should also budget for any planned insulation or modernisation work to improve energy performance.
