Modern one-bed flat in central Maidstone — long lease, ready to move in.
One-bedroom apartment, 497 sq ft — compact and practical
This one-bedroom apartment on St. Peters Street offers a compact, move-in-ready home in central Maidstone. The open-plan living and kitchen area feels light and modern, with double glazing and contemporary construction from the early 2000s. At 497 sq ft it suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance city-base close to shops, cafés and the river.
Practical running costs and tenure are straightforward: a long lease of 167 years provides security, while the annual service charge (£1,789.44) and ground rent (£150) should be factored into affordability calculations. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas central heating — useful to note for budgeting.
The building and apartment are modern and insulated with cavity walls and double glazing, reducing short-term maintenance needs. However, the area records relatively high crime levels, a material local concern to consider when viewing and for potential rental demand.
For buyers prioritising convenience, the flat is well located for transport links, shops and several good schools nearby. Its size and layout make it suited to single occupants, couples, or as a rental unit in a central Maidstone location.
