A compact two-bedroom first-floor apartment offered freehold and ideal for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The open-plan lounge/kitchen gives a bright, usable living space and the property includes a small private garden plus communal outside areas. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and the location places local shops, buses and rail links within easy reach.
Buyers should note this is for sale by Modern Auction. A non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% (minimum £6,600) plus a £349 buyer information pack fee apply; the sale is subject to an undisclosed reserve price and strict auction timescales. Verify all legal and tenure details and allow time for any mortgage processes within the 56-day completion timetable.
Practical considerations: the flat is small (approximately 544 sq ft) and has one bathroom, so space is limited. The property sits in an area with above-average crime and very high flood risk; these factors could affect insurance costs, mortgage offers and rental demand. The apartment dates from 2007 onwards, has double glazing and gas central heating, but is being sold as-present — viewing and a survey are recommended to confirm condition and any required repairs or updates.
Overall this is a low-cost entry point into Folkestone property ownership with clear potential for modest refurbishment or rental use. The combination of transport links, nearby schools and a compact layout will suit buyers seeking an affordable starter home or an investment needing light updating.
