Set on the first floor of a well-regarded purpose-built block, this two-bedroom flat suits someone looking to downsize or retire close to Sidmouth town centre and the Esplanade. The layout is generous for an apartment of this age, with a bright living/dining room that opens onto a south-facing balcony overlooking extensive, well-kept communal gardens. A passenger lift serves all floors, making access easy.
Practical features include a modern fitted kitchen, gas central heating, full uPVC double glazing and a single garage with power and light. The accommodation includes two double bedrooms, ample built-in storage in one bedroom, a fully tiled bathroom and a separate cloakroom. Energy rating C is a positive for running costs.
Notable running costs and legal matters are straightforward but material: the flat is leasehold (approx. 140 years remaining) with an annual service charge of about £2,600 and a ground rent of £25. Council Tax is band E, above average. Broadband speeds are reported as slow, which may matter if you work from home or stream frequently.
The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and is externally sound, though roof cladding shows some weathering and communal maintenance is supported through the service charge. Internally some finishes are dated (carpets and decor in places) and could benefit from cosmetic updating to reflect contemporary tastes. Overall this is a comfortable, low-crime, convenient apartment offering easy access to town amenities and attractive communal grounds.
