A compact, newly renovated one-bedroom first-floor apartment in central Scarborough, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a move-in-ready city base. The apartment combines period character—large bay window and high ceilings—with a contemporary open-plan layout and modern kitchen and shower room. The front living room overlooks Trafalgar Square; the double bedroom faces Scarborough Cricket Ground, providing pleasant outlooks from both sides.
Practical ownership is straightforward: leasehold with a 20% share of the freehold and a very long lease of 984 years. The property is offered chain free and vacant, making a quick completion possible. Service charge is £440 per year and ground rent £10; council tax is band A (very low).
Buyers should note material running and location factors: heating is by electric room heaters (no central gas), the EPC is rated D, and the building is traditional solid-brick construction (likely limited cavity insulation). The apartment is small at around 360 sq ft with no private outdoor space. The immediate area has high crime statistics and is in a very deprived ward, and the neighbourhood is mixed with students and migrant families, which may suit some buyers but not all.
Overall this is a compact, affordable city apartment with strong practical benefits—newly refurbished interior, long lease and share of freehold—best suited to a first-time buyer or investor prepared for an urban setting and electric heating.
