This two-bedroom apartment in Tanyards Court offers comfortable, low-maintenance living in the heart of Seaton, designed exclusively for the over-55s. The south-facing lounge enjoys sea views and natural light, with lift access to all floors and the convenience of a garage. The layout is traditional and practical, with a separate kitchen, bathroom with walk-in shower and good built-in storage in the hallway.
There are clear positives for someone seeking an easy-seaside lifestyle: central location near shops and services, lift access, and communal retirement setting with local amenities within walking distance. The property is chain-free, so a prompt move is possible for a buyer able to proceed without sale contingencies.
Buyers should be aware of material issues: the lease has approximately 62 years remaining which may cause mortgage lenders to refuse lending, and the service charge is relatively high at £3,221.16 per year. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the kitchen is dated and will likely need modernisation. These factors make the flat better suited to a cash buyer or someone prepared for potential lease-extension expense and refurbishment.
Overall, this apartment will suit the over-55 purchaser prioritising location, accessibility and sea views, but it carries lease and running-cost considerations that materially affect mortgageability and long-term value.
