Discover a top-floor penthouse apartment with uninterrupted sea and castle views — an attractive, turnkey opportunity for investors or a seaside second home. Flat 5 occupies the highest level of a period building, offering high ceilings, contemporary open-plan living and two double bedrooms across approximately 635 sq ft. The current setup as a successful holiday let shows immediate income potential; furnished sale is negotiable for a quick start.
The apartment is presented to a high standard with modern fixtures, integrated kitchen appliances and electric heating. The gated, well-planted frontage and communal areas are maintained under a long lease (999 years from 2019). Annual service charge is about £1,350 covering building insurance and communal upkeep; council tax band is described as low.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold and serviced by electric heating (no gas), and the wider area is described as very deprived with high local crime statistics — factors that will influence long-term buy-to-let yields and resale profile. Several nearby schools have mixed Ofsted ratings. Internal viewing is recommended to appreciate the views, layout and finish.
This property suits buyers seeking a sea-view holiday-let investment or a low-maintenance coastal home who accept the leasehold structure, service charge and local area challenges. Transparent consideration of running costs and local market dynamics is advised before purchase.
