A well-presented one-bedroom third-floor apartment ideal for a first-time buyer seeking low-maintenance town living. The open-plan lounge/kitchen creates a roomy feel across the 517 sq ft layout, and the property benefits from an allocated parking space and generous communal gardens.
Located within easy walking distance of Sittingbourne town centre and the train station, the flat suits commuters and shoppers. It is chain free and comes with a long lease (117 years remaining), making it straightforward to purchase.
Buyers should note ongoing costs and practical details: the property uses electric room heaters, which can mean higher running costs than gas-heated homes. The service charge is approximately £1,900 per year and ground rent £180, which will affect monthly outgoings. The area records a very high local crime figure, so prospective buyers should consider security measures.
Overall this apartment offers a tidy, move-in-ready home in a convenient location, with good potential for a first step on the property ladder or a commuter buy-to-let, provided you factor in service charges, electric heating costs, and local crime statistics.
