Situated on the first floor of St Marys Court, this two-bedroom leasehold apartment offers direct views over Warrior Gardens out to the sea — a genuine draw for coastal living. The accommodation includes a 19ft lounge-diner, fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, master bedroom with en-suite and a separate shower room. Lift access and communal gardens add practical convenience for older residents.
This building is restricted to the over-60s and is presented as a managed retirement property with lifeline pull cords and electric heating. The flat is compact (approximately 587 sq ft) and works well for a single occupant or couple seeking a low-maintenance seaside home or a buy-to-let aimed at older tenants.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with only around 63 years remaining on the lease, which will restrict mortgage availability and could make lending difficult or impossible. The annual service charge is approximately £3,320 (including ground rent), and the wider area scores high for deprivation with above-average crime — factors to consider for safety, security and long-term investment value.
On the positive side, there is no flood risk, mobile signal is excellent and the apartment sits above well-kept formal gardens with direct sea views — features that favour comfortable day-to-day living and appeal to buyers prioritising outlook and coastal access. Council Tax Band C is affordable for the area.
