Set on the hall floor of a substantial Victorian townhouse a short walk from Weston-super-Mare seafront, this two-bedroom flat offers an affordable entry into the town’s market. The property benefits from long lease terms (new 999-year lease being created), gas central heating, part double glazing and fast fibre broadband — features that appeal to first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors alike.
The accommodation includes a generous lounge-diner with kitchen area, two double bedrooms and a bathroom. High ceilings, period features and large windows give the rooms good daylight and clear potential for cosmetic refurbishment to modernise the layout and finishes.
Important practical notes: the building is Grade II listed and in a conservation area, which will restrict some changes and can add cost and delay to works. The flat requires renovation and updating, and the walls are likely uninsulated sandstone/limestone. Service charges are modest (approx. £476 p.a. reported) but owners share building insurance and any required communal works. The property is being sold with vacant possession and no onward chain.
This is a straightforward purchase for buyers willing to invest in updating rather than a fully refurbished move-in ready home. For an investor the location, long lease and proximity to transport, town centre and seafront support rental demand; for first-time buyers this offers long-term security via the new 999-year lease and low council tax, balanced against listed-building restrictions and renovation needs.
