Summary - WHARNCLIFFE Queens Parade, Scarborough YO12 7HD
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright, compact flat near beach with private balcony and long lease.
Sea views from bay window to the front
Set on Scarborough’s desirable Blenheim Terrace, this one-bedroom apartment brings a coastal outlook and a compact, well-presented layout suitable for a first home or holiday base. The open-plan living and kitchen space is bright and social, with a bay window framing sea views and a practical layout for everyday living. The double bedroom opens onto a private rear balcony, offering a quiet spot to enjoy fresh air away from the promenade.
Practical strengths include a long lease (982 years), no flood risk, fast broadband and a below-average service charge of £637. The bathroom is modern and the property has been kept in neutral, move-in condition, reducing immediate maintenance needs for most buyers.
Buyers should note material local factors: the neighbourhood records high crime levels and is classed as very deprived; this can affect long‑term resale values and rental demand. Externally there is current scaffolding to the building, indicating ongoing works which may continue during early ownership. The flat is leasehold and compact (approximately 498 sq ft), so it’s most suitable for a single occupant, couple, or as a let/second home rather than a family residence.
Overall this flat offers an affordable entry into Scarborough’s coastal market with genuine sea views and low immediate upkeep. It will appeal to buyers prioritising location and a turnkey interior, while those seeking larger accommodation or quieter, more affluent neighbourhoods should look elsewhere.
