Summary - 203, Ensign Court, Westgate Road FY8 2TS
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Bright first-floor apartment ideal for retirement, first purchase or buy-to-let.
South-facing balcony with direct access from the lounge
This well-presented one-bedroom first-floor apartment sits in a purpose-built block close to the seafront and local transport links, including the nearby train station. The long living room opens onto a south-facing balcony, bringing welcome daylight and a pleasant outlook. The layout and size make it suitable for a retirement move, first purchase, or buy-to-let with projected income around £600 PCM.
Built in 2002, the flat has double glazing, an EPC rating of C and Economy 7 electric storage heating. The kitchen is modern with built-in oven and space for appliances; the bathroom is fully tiled with an electric shower. The communal areas are maintained under a service charge that covers cleaning, gardening and external repainting on a set cycle.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the lease remaining is long (980 years), ground rent is modest (£50/year) and the service charge for the most recent year was £1,187.38 including buildings insurance. Broadband speeds are average while mobile signal is excellent.
Notable negatives: heating is electric storage (no gas central heating), and the local crime level is reported as high — important for buyers considering security and insurance. Prospective purchasers should verify appliances and services themselves and note this is a leasehold retirement block with communal management.
