Set within an attractive Victorian conversion close to the coast, this design-led two-bedroom apartment combines period proportions with a contemporary finish. Tall ceilings and large sash windows flood the principal living space with natural light, while a generous open-plan kitchen, dining and living area creates a flexible home for daily life and entertaining.
The kitchen is a key selling point: two-tone handleless units, quartz worktops, central island and integrated NEFF appliances, including a venting hob with ductless extraction. Both bedrooms are double-sized with plush carpet and useful wardrobe space; the main bathroom offers a walk-in rainfall shower and modern black fittings, plus a separate guest WC for added convenience.
Practical features include gated allocated parking, secure intercom entry and double glazing. Heating is electric via a boiler and radiators, making the apartment low-maintenance but with higher running costs than gas alternatives. The large 935 sq ft footprint is generous for a two-bedroom flat and suits buyers wanting space close to coastal amenities and good transport links.
A few factual points to note: the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity wall insulation, which can affect thermal performance. Broadband speeds are average for the area, and there is no private garden or sea view. The long lease (share of freehold with many years remaining) and low local crime rate are positives for buyers seeking security and longevity.
