Old Fore Street, Sidmouth £185,000

Offered for sale with no on-going chain, the property has been freshly decorated throughout internally and features gas fired central heating. A communal entrance shared with the jewellery shop leads to an inner hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and the entrance to the flat. Once inside, the hallway leads to a good size sitting room with a tall sash window looking east and a sealed fireplace. The separate kitchen has a west facing aspect and is fitted with a good range of units, having a built-in electric hob, oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. An inner hallway leads to a dressing and shower room that is fitted with a white suite and a mains shower.

The room is a particularly good size and has a built in wardrobe. There is a second double bedroom with a west facing rear aspect and an en suite WC with basin.

There are no gardens to worry about and as such the property would lend itself well to those seeking an investment to let, a private second home or those looking to move away from garden maintenance and into a central, convenient location.
