Spacious two‑bed penthouse with huge roof terrace, private beach access and resort facilities.
Extensive panoramic Channel and coastline views
This exceptional penthouse occupies a premier position on Hayes Road with extensive, panoramic Channel views and a very large wrap‑around roof terrace — ideal for enjoying sunsets and sea air. At approximately 1,712 sq ft the flat feels unusually spacious for a two‑bedroom apartment, with a long, bright living/dining room, high‑quality kitchen, and two en‑suite bedrooms (principal with a dressing room). Private access to the beach and about 40 acres of mature communal grounds materially enhance lifestyle appeal.
The development includes tangible lifestyle amenities: two allocated parking spaces, an indoor pool, tennis courts and a gymnasium. Practical details suit modern living — fast broadband, double glazing and contemporary finishes such as oak‑effect laminate flooring. Flood risk is nil and the long lease (977 years remaining) removes a common leasehold concern.
Be clear about running costs: the service charge is above average at £7,479.14 per year and ground rent is £250 p.a. Council Tax is high (Band H, £4,137.32 per year), and the main heating is electric room heaters which can increase energy bills compared with gas systems. The flat is leasehold, so buyers should budget for ongoing service charges and communal upkeep.
This home will suit buyers seeking a low‑maintenance coastal residence with generous space and extensive on‑site leisure facilities — particularly downsizers or second‑home purchasers who value views, private beach access and a resort‑style setting. Investors should note the high service charge and council tax when modelling returns.
