Compact two-bed with proven short-let income potential near beach and station.
Chain-free lower ground flat with private entrance
This chain-free lower ground flat has its own private entrance and sits a short walk from the beach, Old Town and the mainline station — a location that supports strong short-let demand. The open-plan kitchen/lounge and two bedrooms make it flexible as a weekend retreat or ongoing short-term rental; the vendor currently operates successfully as an Airbnb.
The building is a Georgian-era property with high ceilings and period character, set within a terrace. The apartment is compact (approximately 539 sq ft) and includes a small side outside space. Mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators is installed and there is no recorded flood risk.
Buyers should note material downsides: the area shows very high crime and is classed as very deprived, so longer-term owner-occupier appeal may be limited and some renters or guests could be price-sensitive. The property’s solid brick construction is assumed to have no cavity insulation, so energy-efficiency upgrades and internal works may be needed. As a lower ground floor flat, natural light is reduced compared with upper floors.
Tenure is share of freehold and the sale is offered chain-free, but interested parties must verify lease/tenure details and check any short-let permissions. This is best suited to buyers seeking an income-generating seaside bolt-hole or investors targeting holiday-let demand rather than those wanting a spacious family home.
