A compact ground-floor one-bedroom flat in the heart of Scarborough town centre, offered with no onward chain. The apartment sits in a Victorian bay-fronted building and provides a practical open-plan kitchen/living room with good natural light, a small double bedroom and a bathroom — all arranged efficiently across approximately 307 sq ft (28.6 sq m).
This property suits first-time buyers, downsizers or investors seeking a low-entry purchase close to shops, transport and leisure amenities. It has a long lease (about 153 years remaining) and a modest quarterly maintenance charge of £327; council tax is very cheap, which helps running costs.
Buyers should note the building shows external scaffolding and ongoing refurbishment works, and the solid-brick walls are likely uninsulated. The flat is small and has no private outdoor space. The location is in a densely urban neighbourhood with very high local crime statistics and high area deprivation — factors to weigh for personal occupation or lettings.
Overall this is an economical, low-maintenance city-centre flat with straightforward layout and rental potential, but it requires realistic expectations about size, nearby environment and some external maintenance to the building.
