This compact one-bedroom apartment on Scarborough’s desirable Esplanade offers an affordable step onto the coastal property ladder. Set within a handsome Victorian stone block, the flat is neatly presented with a modern fitted kitchen, a bright reception room and a generous double bedroom. Gas central heating, double (secondary) glazing and an EPC rating of C make it comfortable and economical to run.
Communal amenities include lift access, a small established garden and off-street parking on a first-come, first-served basis — useful extras in a seafront location. The building’s period character and high ceilings add appeal for buyers seeking character or tenants wanting easy-access coastal living.
Important practical points: the apartment is small (approx. 411 sq ft) and leasehold; communal maintenance responsibilities and service arrangements will affect running costs. The building dates from before 1900 and walls are likely uninsulated sandstone/limestone, which may mean future improvement works. The area records above-average crime — worth checking local safety measures before committing.
Suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors who value location and character over large internal space. Viewings are recommended to judge room sizes and communal condition; there’s potential to improve storage and circulation within the compact footprint.
