This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment offers a roomy, contemporary feel with high ceilings, an irregular arched living-room window and oak‑veneer flooring throughout. The fitted kitchen/diner includes integrated appliances and the master bedroom benefits from French doors to a west-facing garden and an en suite. Allocated parking and a secure entry/intercom add practical day‑to‑day convenience.
Located in Leiston, the flat sits a short drive from the coast (Sizewell, Thorpeness, Aldeburgh) and local amenities, making it a practical base for work or weekend escapes. At about 616 sq ft, the layout is efficient for first-time buyers seeking immediate move‑in condition and low maintenance outdoor space laid to shingle with a paved patio.
Important practical points are noted: heating is electric room heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives, and the property is leasehold with approximately 981 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £1,372.66 and ground rent c. £150 pa. The flat is currently rented until September 2025 (tenant willing to stay or offer vacant possession), so purchase can suit both investors and buyers wanting vacant possession later.
Overall this is a straightforward, modern apartment with private outdoor space, off‑street parking and low structural maintenance. It will particularly suit first-time buyers who value a ready-to-live-in home near the coast, or investors seeking a let property with existing tenancy.
