OWNER'S INSIGHT

"The flat has been in our family ownership for ten years, and for ourselves a rental investment. We appreciate it would now benefit from a general uplift as showing its age, but offers the key attributes of view, location, and value for money. The flat is a blank canvass for a new owner to enhance to their own style, whether a continued buy-to-let, owner occupier, or second home. The position is excellent, with Wellswood a comfortable walk and the harbour at the bottom of the hill, although we would say it is easier getting down then back up! The allocated parking space was important to us, and the gardens can be enjoyed by the residents without the hassle of upkeeping them which is organised by our professional block management."
