Bright bay-fronted sitting room with pleasant garden views
Contemporary kitchen/diner with integrated appliances
Two double bedrooms; modern shower room
UPVC double glazing throughout; useful storage cupboard with plumbing
Leasehold with 82 years remaining — lease extension needed urgently
High flood risk and very high local crime — insurance and safety concerns
Electric storage heating; solid walls likely uninsulated
This first-floor, two-bedroom flat occupies a central Strand position in Exmouth, a short stroll from the seafront and local amenities. The apartment is presented in modern condition with a bright bay-fronted sitting room, contemporary kitchen/diner with integrated appliances, and a well-finished shower room — ready to occupy or let immediately with no onward chain.
Practical features include UPVC double glazing, useful built-in storage with plumbing, and permit parking nearby. The layout across a split level gives a feeling of space within its average 732 sq ft footprint, and views over the historic Strand Gardens add town-centre charm.
Buyers should note important constraints: the property is leasehold with 82 years remaining and must be extended promptly; this will be a material cost and could affect mortgage availability. The area has a high flood risk and very high local crime figures, factors that will affect insurance, running costs and appeal to some purchasers.
Heating is by electric storage heaters and the building appears to have solid brick walls with no known insulation — potential buyers should budget for energy-improvement works. Service charge and buildings insurance are payable (approx. £1,320pa total, paid quarterly), and there is no private outside space. Viewing is recommended for those seeking a town-centre seaside flat with immediate rental or owner-occupier potential, provided they accept the lease, flood and local-safety considerations.
