2 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Compact two-bedroom home minutes from the town centre, ideal for investors or central living.
Chain-free with brand-new 125-year lease
Two double bedrooms with lower-level master garden access
Open-plan first-floor living with vaulted ceiling and skylights
Private paved rear courtyard, small and low-maintenance
No allocated parking; on-street parking only
Heating via electric room heaters (no gas central heating)
Medium flood risk; area crime levels above average
Stone-built walls likely uninsulated — possible retrofit needed
This reverse-level two-bedroom maisonette sits in the heart of Brixham, a short level walk to shops, cafes and bus links. Converted in 2016 and offered chain-free, it comes with a new 125-year lease and a peppercorn ground rent, making ownership straightforward for buyers or landlords.
The layout places an open-plan living room and modern kitchen on the first floor beneath a vaulted ceiling, with two double bedrooms on the lower level and direct access from the master to a private paved garden. The compact outdoor space is low maintenance and useful for relaxation or a small planter bed.
Practical considerations are clear: heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, and there is no allocated parking—on-street parking only. The property sits in an area with above-average crime statistics and a medium flooding risk; purchasers should factor insurance and local risk into plans. The building fabric appears older, with stone walls likely uninsulated, so further measures may be needed if improving thermal performance is a priority.
For investors this home offers immediate occupation or letting potential and a simple lease position. For an owner-occupier seeking a compact, town-centre base, it provides contemporary living with low-running garden upkeep, though potential buyers should budget for heating and insulation upgrades if aiming to reduce running costs.
