Set on the first floor of a mid‑20th century block on Cherry Garden Avenue, this two‑bedroom apartment offers comfortable, well‑lit living with a pleasant view over the communal garden. The large living room and two double bedrooms make good use of the 863 sq ft layout, and laminate/hardwood floors throughout give a tidy, low‑maintenance finish. An allocated off‑street parking space and quick rail links from nearby Folkestone West add everyday convenience.
The property benefits from an exceptionally long lease (around 942 years) and nominal ground rent, plus no onward chain — features that simplify purchase and protect future value. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the apartment practical for modern working patterns. The communal grounds provide a quiet outdoor space without private garden upkeep.
Buyers should note the surrounding area is recorded as very deprived and local crime levels are above average; those elements may influence insurance and resale. The building is within a communal retirement classification, which could affect resident mix and management policies. The property is leasehold with communal maintenance responsibilities — budget accordingly and check any service charge details before committing.
This apartment suits first‑time buyers, downsizers or investors seeking a straightforward, chain‑free purchase close to transport, schools and local amenities. Its long lease and parking provision are notable positives; cosmetic updating would allow a buyer to personalise the interior and potentially increase resale value.
