No onward chain; share of freehold and circa 975-year lease
A recently renovated one-bedroom second-floor apartment in the heart of Tunbridge Wells, offered with no onward chain and a long lease (approximately 975 years) with a share of freehold. The flat occupies about 507 sq ft and benefits from a separate modern kitchen, a sitting/dining room with good natural light, a double bedroom with built-in storage, bathroom plus a separate cloakroom — practical city-centre living for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor.
The building is a period brick property converted into flats, so the apartment has characterful external appearance but no private garden or parking; outdoor space is very limited and views face neighbouring buildings and a service alley. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators and windows are double glazed (original install date unknown). The property is compact and well suited to a single occupant or couple wanting low-maintenance town-centre convenience.
Important practical points: the area is described with very high recorded crime, which may affect some buyers and rental yields. As a leasehold property, buyers should factor potential additional costs such as leasehold management or administration packs. The building walls are solid brick (no insulation assumed) and buyers should check condensation and energy performance if concerned about thermal performance.
Overall, this flat offers a low-hassle entry to Tunbridge Wells living: newly refreshed interior, excellent commuter links, and strong local amenities. It suits first-time buyers seeking town-centre convenience or investors after a compact, ready-to-rent apartment — subject to local-area considerations and leasehold costs.
