At about 713 sq ft the layout suits a first home or a buy-to-let requiring minimal immediate alteration. The property is offered chain-free for a straightforward purchase.
Practical points are straightforward and important to note. The lease has approximately 87 years remaining; service charge is relatively high at £4,692 per year and ground rent is £220 per year. Broadband speeds are average and the area scores high for deprivation and local crime statistics, which will affect long‑term desirability and insurance costs.

The building’s communal roof garden and sea-facing balconies add lifestyle value. The location places shops, transport and well-regarded schools within easy reach.
This apartment suits buyers seeking affordable coastal living or investors looking for a lettable two-bedroom in a town centre location. Buyers should factor the remaining lease length, service charge level and local area challenges into affordability and future planning.
