A three-bedroom, two-floor apartment offered with a long lease and no onward chain — well suited to investors or buy-to-let purchasers. The accommodation totals about 786 sq ft and includes a lounge, kitchen, family bathroom and three bedrooms arranged over a split-level layout.
The property’s strengths are practical: 153 years remaining on the lease, no ground rent, a modest annual service charge of £1,093 and easy access to Folkestone Central station (under a mile). Broadband and mobile signal are reported strong, and council tax sits in the low Band A.
Important considerations: the wider area scores as very deprived and local crime is above average; the building holds an EPC rating of D. The flat is described as small overall and will likely need cosmetic updating or energy improvements to maximise rental income or resale value.
For an investor seeking a straightforward, chain-free purchase close to transport links and local schools, this apartment offers clear potential but is best viewed with realistic expectations about location-related challenges and likely improvement costs.
