Description
This ground-floor flat is set within a converted building within walking distance of the town centre, seafront and local train station. The accommodation includes a lounge, separate dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms, a study on the first floor, a bathroom and two separate W.C.s. The property is chain free and requires extensive renovation, offering scope to update the existing accommodation. Outside, there is a private rear garden and one allocated parking space to the front. The nearby town centre provides local amenities, while the seafront offers access to beaches and coastal walks.

44out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
At 44/100, this is a lower-scoring opportunity, but the appeal is clear: a spacious ground-floor flat with separate lounge and dining room, a study, private garden and allocated parking, close to the town centre, seafront and station. The interiors are in poor condition, with worn finishes and visible ceiling and upper-wall damage, while the garden is overgrown—there is substantial scope to reshape and improve the property.
Key opportunities
- The separate lounge and dining room, plus a first-floor study, offer scope to rethink how the generous accommodation works for everyday living.
- The dated, incomplete-looking kitchen and worn finishes across several rooms give a clear canvas for a cohesive interior overhaul.
- The private garden can be cleared and improved, adding useful outdoor space alongside the allocated parking.
Key risks
- Visible ceiling and upper-wall staining and damage in several interior areas need investigation to establish their cause and repair scope.
- Stripped-back condition is not established, but the extensive interior damage and worn finishes point to a heavy, multi-room programme; allow for a longer, more involved project than a cosmetic refresh.
