Ground-floor retirement flat with sea views and full communal services.
Sea and pier views from lounge and bedrooms
A ground-floor retirement apartment with genuine sea and pier views, positioned within easy walking distance of the Promenade and Craig y Don’s shops, cafes and medical centre. The apartment has two good-sized bedrooms, a refitted shower room and a light lounge with double doors to take advantage of the outlook. The building offers extensive communal facilities including a residents’ lounge, dining room, guest suite, laundry, battery car store and 24-hour staffing — convenient for buyers seeking support and sociable communal living.
Practical details that matter: the property is leasehold (125 years from March 2002, c.107 years remaining) and is specifically for occupants aged 60+. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the car park operates on a daily first-come, first-served basis. The gardens and external areas are maintained for residents’ use.
Important cautions: the annual service charge is high (£9,352.29 to 31/08/2025) and there is an annual ground rent of £410. Council Tax is above average (Band E). The wider area scores as very deprived with a very high local crime rate — buyers should weigh the convenience and support of the scheme against these local socio-economic factors.
This apartment will suit downsizers or retirees prioritising seaside proximity, on-site care and community amenities, who are comfortable with higher communal costs and electric heating. It presents immediate move-in readiness with limited renovation needs, while offering long-term security through a substantial lease length.
