Renovated seafront one-bed with parking and long lease — chain-free.
Uninterrupted sea views from a fifth-floor position
This fifth-floor, one-bedroom apartment on Marine Road East delivers bright coastal living with uninterrupted sea views and a newly fitted kitchen and bathroom. At about 710 sq ft the layout feels generous for a one-bed flat, with a large reception room maximising light and the waterfront aspect.
The flat has been comprehensively renovated: replastered, replumbed and rewired, with electric underfloor heating installed and double glazing noted. It is offered chain-free and comes with an allocated off-street parking space and a very long lease (c.954 years), making ownership straightforward for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: tenure is leasehold, the EPC is rated D, and the building dates from the 1950s–60s with cavity walls that may lack added insulation (assumed). Main heating is electric, which can be costlier than gas in some seasons. The property sits in an area described as deprived, so local socio-economic factors may affect long-term capital growth compared with more affluent locations.
Overall this apartment suits someone wanting a move-in-ready coastal base—ideal for a first-time buyer, downsizer or landlord seeking a seaside rental with low immediate maintenance. The combination of sea views, recent refurbishment and long lease offer genuine convenience; be aware of running-cost and location considerations when viewing.
