Summary - CRAVEN COURT 18-19 FLAT 3 ETHELBERT CRESCENT MARGATE CT9 2DU
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Upper-ground flat with parking, original floorboards and conversion potential.
Front-facing living room with direct sea views
An upper-ground, one-bedroom flat in a Victorian terrace with front-facing sea views from the large living room. High ceilings and restored original floorboards give genuine period character and a bright, airy feel. The apartment includes a separate kitchen, shower room and double bedroom, plus a residents' car park with one allocated space.
The property is offered chain free on a leasehold basis with approximately 93 years remaining. Running costs are reasonable: a below-average service charge (£500) and modest ground rent (£200). Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators, and windows are double glazed (install date unknown).
There is practical potential to reconfigure the layout into a two-bedroom flat subject to planning and building consents — attractive for couples, first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and local schools have good Ofsted ratings.
Buyers should note material negatives: the area records very high crime rates and is classified as very deprived, which may affect long-term resale and rental demand. The building appears to have solid brick walls with no built-in insulation (assumed), so further thermal upgrades may be required. This property suits someone seeking character, sea aspect and potential, who is comfortable with the local market realities.
