Summary - HOMEBAYE HOUSE FLAT 32 HARBOUR ROAD SEATON EX12 2LT
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact one-bedroom retirement flat with sea views and on-site support.
Sea-facing enclosed sunroom with direct bay views
This compact one-bedroom flat in Homebaye House sits on Seaton’s seafront, offering direct coastal views from an enclosed sunroom/balcony. Purpose-built for over-60s, the block includes a resident House Manager, 24-hour careline, communal lounge, guest suites and lift access — useful features for retirees seeking social facilities and on-site support. The open-plan living area and built-in bedroom storage make efficient use of the 352 sq ft footprint, while the kitchen and shower room are presented in modern finishes.
Important practical points are clear: the property is leasehold with approximately 61 years remaining. That relatively short lease, combined with a high annual service charge (£4,560), will limit mortgage options and affect resale value; some lenders may refuse to lend. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, and off-street parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis rather than guaranteed allocated spaces.
For a buyer seeking a low-maintenance, social retirement base by the sea, this flat delivers location and communal support. For buyers dependent on mortgage finance or seeking a long-term asset with low service costs, the lease length and service charge are material drawbacks that require careful investigation. A purchaser should obtain a full lease review, confirm what the service charge covers, and check mortgageability before committing.
