Main-door seaside flat — ideal first purchase or low-maintenance investment.
Two double bedrooms in main-door ground-floor flat
This ground-floor main-door flat sits a short walk from Portobello Beach and the Promenade, offering a compact, well-presented home or buy-to-let in a lively neighbourhood. The accommodation is offered in move-in condition with two double bedrooms, a bright living room and a contemporary bathroom with mains shower over the bath. Gas central heating and double glazing provide everyday comfort and efficiency.
The property’s size (approximately 526 sq ft) and small communal grounds suit a single occupant, couple or investor seeking a low-maintenance nearby-seaside flat. Local amenities and transport links are excellent, with unrestricted on-street parking and a wide range of shops, cafes and leisure facilities close by.
Buyers should note the flat is small and located in a wider area described as ‘very deprived’ and ‘hampered aspiration’, which may affect long-term capital growth and rental demand. The building appears sound and mostly cosmetically updated, but potential purchasers should allow for modest future maintenance or cosmetic refurbishment to reflect personal taste.
Overall this property represents a straightforward entry into Portobello’s market: immediate coastal access and strong local amenity value balanced against compact living space and mixed neighbourhood indicators. It will appeal to first-time buyers wanting a seaside start or investors looking for an easy-to-manage tenancy close to transport and amenities.
