Spacious two-bedroom apartment with strong lifestyle and rental appeal.
Superb dual-aspect water views across the yard and waterfront
Set within the historic, Grade I listed Royal William Yard, this first-floor two-bedroom apartment offers superb dual-aspect water views and a bright open-plan living space. High ceilings and large industrial-style windows highlight the building’s original stone character while the well-equipped kitchen and useful utility cupboard make everyday living convenient.
Both bedrooms are genuine doubles and the shower room/WC provides practical accommodation for small families, couples or investors. Gas central heating and an EPC rating of C give reasonable running costs for an older building, while the apartment’s 818 sq ft footprint feels generous for a coastal city centre location.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status and age: Grade I listing will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance, and the granite walls are assumed to lack insulation. The apartment is leasehold with a ground rent of £395 and above-average council tax, factors to include in ongoing ownership costs.
This apartment will suit buyers seeking characterful waterside living with good transport links and local amenities on the doorstep. It also offers clear appeal to buy-to-let investors or owner-occupiers prepared to accept listed-building responsibilities in return for a striking historic setting and strong lifestyle draw.
