A well-presented, ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in a handsome Victorian building, offering easy single-level living and immediate availability with no onward chain. The layout suits a downsizer or someone seeking a low-maintenance base: two bedrooms, an open living/dining area, a compact modern kitchen and a fully tiled shower room. A terrace/balcony adds private outdoor space and a designated parking space sits immediately by the front door for convenience.
Practical details are strong: a long lease (circa 975 years), modest ground rent and an established service charge cover communal maintenance. Period character on the exterior is matched by contemporary internal finishes, including built-in wardrobes in the master and a bright bay-windowed living area. The apartment occupies a raised ground/floor position with a private entrance and green, leafy surroundings.
Be aware of a few material points: heating is electric via room heaters rather than a central gas system, broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, and the building sits in an area with above-average recorded crime — factors to consider for comfort and running costs. Annual service charge and ground rent apply (current service charge c. £1,878.62; ground rent c. £66).
This property will suit buyers seeking an attractive, low-effort home in Scarborough with long lease security and private parking. It offers the chance to move straight in while enjoying period street appeal and a manageable footprint for future downsizing or part-time coastal living.
