Light-filled two-bedroom apartment set on the first floor of an attractive period building on Whitstable's popular Oxford Street. The flat benefits from its own private entrance, a smart recently renewed interior and practical layout including a sitting room with a south-easterly aspect, a kitchen, study and two double bedrooms. A new 125-year lease will be granted on completion and the property is offered chain free — useful for a swift move.
The location is a genuine selling point: cafés, bars, boutique shops and restaurants are on the doorstep, and the beach, harbour and Whitstable station are all a short stroll away (station approx. 0.5 miles). Practical details that add everyday value include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, mains gas central heating and a low annual service charge of around £500. Council tax is noted as very cheap.
Buyers should factor in a few material considerations. The apartment is compact at about 592 sq ft and sits in a solid-brick Victorian building (likely limited wall insulation). Crime levels in the immediate area are recorded as very high; prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves on security and local conditions. There is no ground rent and the lease length is generous, but specific legal confirmations will come from solicitors.
Overall, this is a convenient, characterful seaside flat suited to first-time buyers or those seeking a low-maintenance lock-up-and-leave base in central Whitstable. It offers immediate occupancy after its recent improvements, with sensible potential to personalise further where desired.
