The property market in CH45 2PR is defined by a 53% home ownership rate, indicating a mix of owner-occupied and rental properties. The predominant accommodation type is flats, which suggests a housing stock developed in the mid-20th century, often in multi-unit buildings. This configuration is typical of seaside resorts and suburban areas where space is limited. For buyers, this means a focus on flats rather than detached homes, which may appeal to those prioritising affordability and proximity to amenities. The small size of the area and its immediate surroundings means housing options are limited, potentially increasing competition for available properties. The presence of nearby retail and transport links, including five rail stations, adds to the area’s appeal for commuters and those seeking a balance between urban and coastal living.
