A freshly refurbished two-bedroom flat positioned directly on Sea View Terrace, just steps from Margate’s shoreline. The property offers a ready-to-move-in open-plan living/kitchen, a modern bathroom and two double bedrooms, making it well-suited for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking immediate rental appeal.
The home sits in a Victorian mid-terrace building with high ceilings, bay windows and period character retained alongside modern fittings. A rare private two-tier courtyard with rear access and a useful cellar provide outdoor space and storage — valuable in terrace flats. The long lease (106 years) and share of freehold reduce ownership friction, and the property is being sold chain free.
Buyers should note the wider area scores high for crime and is classified as very deprived; that affects resale dynamics and rental demand profiles. The building has solid brick walls with assumed no cavity insulation, so future energy-efficiency upgrades may be worthwhile. Service charges average £1,800 per year and council tax is very low.
Overall this is a compact, characterful seafront apartment offering immediate occupancy and coastal lifestyle appeal, balanced by local area challenges and likely future insulating works. It suits someone prioritising location and turnkey condition over suburban tranquillity.
