Chain-free two-bedroom first-floor apartment near the River Dart, ideal lock-up-and-leave.
Heart of Dartmouth, steps from River Dart and shops
Set on the first floor of a handsome Georgian terrace, this two-double-bedroom apartment sits in the heart of Dartmouth, moments from the River Dart and the town’s shops, cafés and restaurants. The well-presented sitting room has high ceilings and large sash windows that bring light into a comfortable living space, while the kitchen and utility cupboard provide practical everyday storage and appliance space.
Chain-free and ideal as a lock-up-and-leave second home or starter purchase, the property benefits from a very long lease (990 years remaining) and reasonable running costs (Council Tax band B). Mains gas central heating and double glazing (fitted post-2002) offer modern convenience, and ultrafast broadband and excellent mobile signal suit remote working or streaming.
Buyers should note material issues frankly: the building was constructed before 1900 with stone walls assumed to have no added insulation, and the location is in a high flood risk area. The apartment has an EPC C and a small ground rent payable. These factors affect insurance, insulation improvement costs and future running expenses.
For someone seeking a centrally-located, characterful apartment with straightforward access to coastal walking, boating and town amenities, this home offers tidy accommodation and strong lifestyle appeal. Investors and buyers wanting a second home will appreciate the lock-up-and-leave convenience; those sensitive to flood risk or wanting a fully modernised thermal envelope should factor potential remediation works into their plans.
