This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in Maidstone offers a low-cost entry into town living with off-street parking and no onward chain. The flat is compact at 334 sq ft, arranged with an entrance hall, open-plan kitchen/lounge, one bedroom and a bathroom — a practical layout suited to a single occupant or couple.
The building dates to the 1970s and the kitchen and general interior require modernization; the property is sold as seen. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the apartment is double glazed (installation date unknown), which should be considered when budgeting for running costs and potential upgrades.
Financially the flat is straightforward: leasehold with 215 years remaining, a below-average service charge of £800 and a small ground rent of £50. Council tax is very cheap and there is no flood risk, making this a low-hassle purchase for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking town-centre stock.
Location benefits include close proximity to local shops, a hospital and mainline stations, plus good mobile signal and average broadband speeds. The compact footprint and dated finish represent both a limitation and an opportunity to add value through sensible improvements.
