"PARTICULARS OF SALE
Lying one street in from the Cliff Top, 12 Abbey Terrace is a large Victorian townhouse that was converted into flats in around 1982. Built in brick under a slated roof, the property has a large triangular shaped bay window to the front for the lower three floors and dormers on the front and rear elevation to give greater practical floor area to the attic flat.

The property has been fully let until relatively recently but is ripe for refurbishment now. Two of the five apartments are occupied at the time of writing these details, but the tenants are all relocating and the thought is to sell the property with vacant possession so that a new owner will have a free hand for upgrading.

The basement apartment has its own access both at the front from a door from the front garden and from the rear. yard. The remaining flats in the building all share the formal front entrance with its communal lobby, hallway, stairs and landings. There is a substantial, galvanised fire escape to the rear of the building offering a second means of escape to all the upper flats. The building also has a modern fire alarm system and safety lighting with the control panel in the communal hallway.

Although developed in the 1980s, the building does retain one or two snippets of its Victorian style with some broad panelled doors, ceiling cornice, coloured etched glass windows on the half landings, etc.

The floor plan of the building is relatively successful with each flat having one double bedroom and most of the units having separate kitchens from the lounges. All of the flats have lobbies or hallways off the communal areas. See illustrative floor plans attached.

There is a small garden at the front of the building whilst to the rear is a yard with a limited area for bin storage plus a single parking space. A good proportion of the rear yard is taken up by the fire escape.
