This chain-free one-bedroom apartment sits within a Grade II listed mid-terrace building in the heart of West Malling, a short walk from the high street’s shops and cafés. The main living space has vaulted, beamed ceilings, Velux windows and a mezzanine offering flexible use as a study or occasional bedroom. The layout and exposed historic features create a distinctive, characterful home suited to someone seeking central, low-maintenance living.
Practical details: the property is leasehold (999 years remaining) with electric storage heating and solid brick walls that likely lack modern insulation. There is no private garden and the building’s listed status may restrict alterations and could complicate maintenance or improvement works. The ground floor appears to be mixed-use/retail frontage, reflecting the property’s high-street location and limited external space.
This apartment will suit a first-time buyer or someone downsizing who values character and a central address over outdoor space. It’s chain-free for a faster move, but budget for potential heritage-related repairs, heating upgrades and insulation if you plan to modernise. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the vaulted rooms and mezzanine configuration in person.
