Summary - 28, WESTBROOK ROAD, MARGATE CT9 5AU
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Lower-ground one-bedroom with courtyard, minutes from the beach and station.
Private courtyard garden with rear gated access
Bright lower-ground one-bedroom flat with its own entrance and private courtyard, set less than 300 metres from Margate seafront. The apartment offers a generous double bedroom with a bay window, separate lounge and kitchen, and an enclosed low-maintenance outdoor space with rear gated access — useful for cycles or secure storage.
Ownership is straightforward with a share of freehold and an exceptionally long lease (approx. 964 years). Running costs are competitive: a low service charge (£75) and very cheap council tax. Broadband and mobile signal are good, and Margate station is a five-minute walk, making this practical for commuters or investors seeking strong rental appeal.
The property sits in a lively area close to the Old Town, Turner Contemporary and local cafés, shops and bus routes. It suits a first-time buyer, seaside retreat purchaser or buy-to-let investor wanting easy access to town amenities and the beach.
Notable negatives are honest and material: the flat is lower-ground (reduced natural light compared with upper floors) and the local area records higher crime levels and significant deprivation indicators. The courtyard is small; buyers seeking extensive outdoor space should note this. No flooding risk is recorded.
