Quietly positioned at the rear of a Victorian corner building, this first-floor one-bedroom apartment offers an affordable entry into Minehead’s town centre living. The sitting room is spacious for the property size and opens toward an attractive re-fitted kitchen with modern units and integrated electric hob and oven. The layout also includes a double bedroom, re-fitted bathroom and a separate cloakroom for extra convenience.
Practical details make this straightforward to buy: long lease remaining (circa 963 years), chain-free sale and a modest annual ground rent of £100. Off-street parking is currently rented to the vendor and may be available to purchase, which is useful in a central location. Council tax is very low, and local amenities, shops and public transport are within easy walking distance.
Important facts to note: heating is via electric storage heaters and the main fuel is electricity, so running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. The building’s traditional sandstone/limestone walls are assumed uninsulated and double glazing install dates are unknown, which could mean additional insulation or window upgrades would improve comfort and efficiency. The property is compact at about 435 sq ft, so it’s best suited to a single occupant, couple or investor targeting rental demand.
Overall this is a well-presented, low-maintenance flat that suits a first-time buyer wanting town-centre convenience or an investor seeking a straightforward, chain-free purchase. Buyers wanting lower long-term energy bills should factor potential heating and insulation improvements into their budget.
