Auction appraiser Steve Appleby said: “The new owner has acquired a modern holiday apartment with sea views in a popular coastal area.

“As well as being a holiday bolthole, it also offers potential for letting income through an option to join a collective rental pool of all the holiday apartments in the development with income split between each.”

The apartment was auctioned with the remainder of a 125-year lease from February 2012.

Clive Emson Auctioneers’ next auction concludes on March 26, with bidding live from 48 hours before. Lot entries close on March 2, with the catalogue online from Thursday, March 5.
