This top-floor one-bedroom maisonette offers a genuine first-step opportunity in Sittingbourne. The flat feels larger than many one-beds thanks to a 15'8" bedroom, separate lounge and private garden — useful extras for a solo occupant or couple. The property is priced competitively at £140,000 and comes with useful private outdoor storage and a separate shed.
The home requires modernisation throughout: fixtures and finishes are dated and the description notes renovation is needed. The EPC rating listed as D (76 expired) and the property is leasehold with 97 years remaining, so buyers should budget for energy improvements and check lease terms. Service charge is £876 per year (below average) and council tax is very low (Band A).
Location and transport are strengths: fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and good rail links to London make the maisonette suitable for commuters. However, the immediate area has higher-than-average crime and is described as very deprived; this is factually relevant for buyers concerned about resale or rental demand. Overall, the property suits first-time buyers and investors seeking a low-entry purchase with clear scope to add value by modernising.
