Looking at flats on the coast as a holiday home ( not this country, france near where we live) and investment.
Basically boils down to either: a large two bed, spacious, no work required two bed in a less popular area
Or a small, one bed, some work required in a popular, sought after area.
The two flats are the same price, but one is twice as large as the other.
We know and like the area for the smaller flat, don't know the other area but when we visit we like it but its in a poorer area.maybe up and coming ( or maybe not).
Both are walking distances to the beach ( we are buying as a holiday home). Both beaches are lovely but probably the expensive area is nicer ( but i know it well so maybe a familiarity thing).
One is a twenty minute walk uphill though which in the hot weather will not be easy. ( it will be hot in summer - france)
We are a couple with two dogs so don't need a huge amount of space, but i imagine family will want to come and stay, so this would be a problem in the smaller one, and we could not stay together ( dh insisits we buy to suit us not family!)
A bit stuck on this one but accept its a nice problem to have.
