Ground-floor, chain-free two-bedroom flat with its own side entrance and rare direct access to the communal Victorian garden. The layout includes a lounge, kitchen, utility room, family bathroom, two double bedrooms and a basement ideal for storage. At about 755 sq ft, the property offers solid living space for a starter home, holiday let or rental unit.
Practical features include gas central heating, mainly double glazing and a Worcester boiler. The flat sits in a traditional solid-brick Victorian building and benefits from 102 years remaining on the lease and a manageable service charge of £1,530 per year. It is currently let but can be sold with vacant possession, giving flexibility to owner-occupiers or investors.
Buyers should be aware of material negatives: the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks cavity insulation and will need attention for energy efficiency; the neighbourhood scores as very deprived with higher local crime levels, which may affect resale or tenant choice. Council tax is very low, but potential purchasers should budget for routine maintenance and possible upgrades to insulation, windows (unknown glazing install date), and interior finishes.
This property suits a buyer seeking affordable entry into Margate with immediate garden access and rental potential. For investors, the location near Northdown Road amenities and local schools offers lettable demand, but factor in remedial works and the wider area’s socio-economic challenges when assessing yield or refurbishment plans.
