This former coastal watch house is a compact, characterful one-bedroom apartment with direct sea views — ideal as a holiday bolthole or rental. Stone walls, exposed beams and an inglenook with woodburner give genuine period charm, while the sunroom frames the coastal outlook and maximises natural light.
Practical benefits include a large double bedroom with en-suite, an additional shower room, private allocated parking, and a long lease (973 years). The apartment is presented for immediate use but offers simple cosmetic uplift potential to increase rental or resale value.
Buyers should note key constraints: the property sits in a high flood risk zone and currently has an EPC rating of F. It is leasehold with an average annual service charge of £1,200 and a small ground rent. Heating runs on an LPG-fed boiler with radiators and some electric underfloor heating; broadband performance may vary locally.
Overall, 1 The Old Watch House suits investors or buyers seeking a seaside retreat who accept coastal exposure and associated running costs. Conduct a flood-risk review and a full survey before committing; the setting and character make it a strong short‑stay rental or personal seaside retreat if you factor in insurance and mitigation costs.
