Description

If you are looking for a holiday home or a good investment opportunity, this spacious and very well-presented lower ground-floor flat is well worth a closer look.  Located in the centre of town yet is off the beaten track, overlooking a pretty gated tree-lined square. The accommodation comprises a large open-plan living/dining/kitchen area, a bathroom, a large double bedroom with built-in wardrobes, a utility area to the rear, and a generous hallway that allows enough space for a cloakroom. The property also boasts off-street parking, which is hard to come by in this location, as well as two external storage areas. 


Location

Also within a short walk of the property is the unspoiled North Bay beach, the restored open-air theatre which hosts performances by headline rock and opera stars in the summer months, the miniature railway and, most recently, the £14 million Alpamare Waterpark providing a great destination to discover and explore all that the historic seaside town has to offer.
