Nearly new flat with long lease and shared ownership option.
Two double bedrooms with open-plan living and balcony
Light-filled and nearly new, this two-bedroom third-floor flat on Corys Road offers 678 sq ft of practical, contemporary living. Built in 2020, the apartment features an open-plan living/kitchen/dining area that flows onto a balcony, two double bedrooms and a modern bathroom — a straightforward layout well suited to first-time buyers or commuter professionals.
Available as a shared ownership 60% option (share value approx. £175,000) or full purchase, the property benefits from a very long lease (994 years), EPC B rating and parking by permit. Annual service charge is £2,344 (next review 04/2026) and council tax falls in band C — predictable running costs for a modern home close to Rochester station and local amenities.
Be aware of context: the immediate area scores high for crime and is classed as deprived, which may affect buyer comfort and insurance considerations. The development is mid-terrace with standard ceiling heights and average-sized rooms; while well-maintained, buyers seeking large period features or rural calm should look elsewhere.
Overall this is a practical, low-maintenance flat with strong commuter links, energy efficiency and a long lease. It suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable route into ME1 with the option of shared ownership, or investors targeting modern city-centre rental stock, provided they accept the surrounding area's social and safety challenges.
