This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment on Marine Parade offers direct sea views and an unmistakeable Regency/Victorian character. Tall sash windows, high ceilings and a curved bay frontage create a bright, airy living room that opens onto a small balcony—ideal for morning coffee and uninterrupted coastal outlooks.
The flat is sold with a share of freehold and a very long effective lease (c.973 years), and it comes to market with no onward chain, simplifying purchase. At about 568 sq ft the layout suits a single occupant, couple, buy-to-let investor or holiday-home buyer seeking strong seaside appeal and rental demand.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: there is no private garden, the service charge is relatively high at £1,955pa, and the local area records higher crime and general deprivation levels. Broadband speeds are average; mobile signal is excellent. Overall the apartment offers strong location and period features but requires realistic budgeting for service costs and the urban seafront setting.
