Set on the West Bay promenade, this well-presented two-bedroom apartment offers uninterrupted sea and coastal views from every principal room and a private balcony. The generous living/dining room is bright and arranged to make the most of the outlook, while both bedrooms are double-sized and the main bedroom benefits from an ensuite WC. Practical extras include a garage, communal garden access and a long lease of 969 years.
The property is currently used successfully as a holiday let and will suit buyers looking for a seaside primary residence, part-time coastal retreat or continuing rental income. Interiors are tidy and move-in ready; the large room proportions and coastal aspect are the main selling points.
Buyers should note material considerations: the location is in a high flood-risk zone and the property uses electric storage heating. Service charges are £3,653 pa and the EPC rating is E. Council tax sits above average. These factors affect running costs and insurance, particularly for long-term residential use or lettings.
Overall, this West Bay apartment provides immediate coastal living with strong holiday-let appeal, a very long lease, and private parking — balanced by flood risk exposure and relatively high ongoing charges. Viewing is recommended to judge the outlook and light for yourself.
