A fully furnished two-bedroom first-floor apartment occupying 571 sq ft in the heart of Porthcawl, a short walk from shops and the seafront. The open-plan living/kitchen is bright with a bay window and high ceiling; the accommodation includes two double bedrooms and a family shower room. EPC rating D and Council Tax Band B.
This property suits someone looking to downsize or buy a low-maintenance base by the coast. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and local amenities — shops, cafés, healthcare and public transport — are all nearby. The building is a converted Victorian block with character features and modern finishes inside.
Important considerations: communal retirement classification and the area records very high deprivation and high crime rates, which may affect insurance and resale. Heating is by electric room heaters and there is no information on tenure; service charges average £1,450 annually. Despite the attractive interiors and location, buyers should factor in running costs and request tenure and full building reports before committing.
