Summary - KENT HOUSE FLAT 1 BOUVERIE ROAD WEST FOLKESTONE CT20 2PR
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Character apartment with parking near stations and seafront.
Chain free with 976-year lease
Set within a red-brick Victorian building in Folkestone’s West End, this chain-free two-bedroom apartment offers practical living with long lease security and allocated off-street parking. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite while a separate kitchen keeps cooking and living spaces distinct — useful for couples or professionals who work from home.
The property is well placed for commuters, close to both Folkestone Central and West stations, and within easy reach of local shops, cafes and the seafront. High ceilings and large windows bring natural light, and the building’s period character gives the apartment charm. Flood risk is nil and mobile signal is excellent.
Buyers should note the property’s solid brick construction likely lacks modern cavity insulation and may need upgrading for improved thermal performance. The service charge is approximately £3,600 per year, and the area scores as relatively deprived overall — factors to consider alongside the affordable council tax and a very long lease (976 years).
This home will suit first-time buyers or young professionals seeking an affordable, characterful base near transport links, and investors looking for a straightforward rental in a town-centre location.
