Set just yards from the beach and a stone’s throw from Margate train station, this split-level Victorian flat offers bright sea views from both the lounge and kitchen. The apartment is presented in good decorative order, with high ceilings and a bay-window principal bedroom that enhances natural light and period character. At about 613 sq ft, the layout is compact and efficient — ideal for a first home or a lock-up-and-leave seaside retreat.
Practical details are straightforward: leasehold with 113 years remaining, mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and double glazing. Service charge and ground rent are modest (£700 and £400 respectively), and council tax is very low. There is no private garden or balcony, so outdoor space is limited to nearby seafront and communal street areas.
Be candid about local context: the wider area has higher crime rates and considerable deprivation, which can affect resale and rental demand. The building is a pre-1900 solid-brick terrace (likely without wall insulation), so buyers who prioritise energy efficiency may want to budget for upgrades. Overall, this is a well-located, characterful flat offering seaside living and strong transport links — particularly suited to first-time buyers seeking an affordable base by the coast.
