A bright, well-presented one-bedroom third-floor apartment in a converted Victorian building, offered chain-free and with a long lease (114 years). The open-plan living area and contemporary kitchen create a light, low-maintenance home ideal for a first-time buyer or commuter. Integrated appliances and neutral décor mean you can move in with minimal immediate work.
Practical running costs are clear: an average service charge of £1,478 and a ground rent of £250, with council tax described as very cheap. The property totals approximately 449 sq ft and sits within easy walking distance of Sittingbourne town centre and the railway station, providing direct links to London.
Be realistic about the setting: the wider area is classified as deprived with a very high local crime rate, which may affect long-term resale or rental appeal. Despite that, the flat’s long lease, modern presentation and transport links present tangible value for buyers seeking an affordable, well-located one-bed with low upkeep.
Overall, this apartment suits a buyer prioritising convenience and a turn-key finish over a prime neighbourhood. It’s a sensible first home or buy-to-let prospect for those comfortable with the local area profile and communal charges.
