Move-in-ready one-bedroom apartment with period charm near Walpole Bay.
Share of freehold included, 117 years remaining on lease
A bright, recently refurbished one-bedroom apartment on a quiet Cliftonville avenue, offered with a share of freehold. The interior blends period touches—wooden panelling and Edwardian character—with contemporary fittings, creating a comfortable, move-in-ready home. The lounge is spacious for the size and the modern fitted kitchen serves everyday needs well.
Practical running costs are reasonable: council tax is very low and the service charge is £600 per year (below average). The property sits on the first floor of an Edwardian building with a secure gated entrance and intercom-controlled communal door. The long lease (117 years) reduces a common leasehold concern.
Notable negatives are straightforward: heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central heating system, walls are cavity with assumed no added insulation, and broadband speeds are average. The flat is leasehold, and buyers should check details of the share of freehold arrangement. Its town location means average local crime and typical urban noise levels at times.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer, professional, or buy-to-let investor looking for a low-maintenance pied-à-terre close to Margate’s seafront, schools and leisure amenities. Its combination of period charm, recent refurbishment and seaside location make it an appealing, practical purchase with immediate occupation potential.
