A ground-floor, one-bedroom flat in Marina Point offering a straightforward seafront investment or buy-to-let opportunity. The apartment has a private entrance, fitted kitchen and a modern three-piece bathroom suite, with double glazing and electric storage heating already in place. Communal parking and direct seafront access add clear rental appeal for holiday or long-stay tenants.
The block is purpose-built (late 1970s/early 1980s) and the flat is compact at about 485 sq ft—easy to manage and re-let quickly. Service charges are modest at £925 (annual figure shown), there is no ground rent, and a long lease remains (around 114 years), which reduces typical leasehold purchase friction.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the surrounding area is classified as deprived with high local crime rates, which can suppress capital growth and affect certain tenant types. Heating is electric storage/room heaters (higher running costs than gas), and the living room is described as dated and likely requires cosmetic refurbishment to achieve stronger rental yields or resale value. There is no private garden or outdoor space.
Overall this is a low-entry-price, seaside apartment suited to investors seeking a low-maintenance rental with short-term holiday potential or steady council-tax‑band‑A tenancies. Factor in refurbishment, heating costs and local-area considerations when assessing likely yields and tenant demand.
