The period property, which contains eight apartments, is listed along with most of the houses on the street thanks features such as its bay windows and decorated keystone.

Jon Rimmer, Clive Emson auction appraiser, said: "There was a lot of interest shown by investors and the sale showed how buoyant the market is.

"This is a large end-terrace block close to the town centre, seafront and railway station.
