This recently renovated ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in Margate is offered as a turnkey investment with immediate lettings potential. The open-plan kitchen and lounge, quality finishes and compact layout suit short-term or long-let rental markets, appealing to buy-to-let investors seeking a low-management opportunity.
The property is small (388 sq ft) and arranged for efficient living: a bright bay-windowed lounge/diner, integrated modern kitchen, private bedroom and shower room. The long lease (146 years) and modest service charge and ground rent keep ownership costs predictable.
Buyers should note material location and specification issues: the area is classified as very deprived with high local crime rates, and the building sits on a mid-terrace urban street with no private outdoor space. Heating is by electric storage heaters, and the property is compact — most suitable for a single occupant, couple, or holiday-let use rather than a family.
For investors, the clear positives are the turnkey condition, strong broadband and mobile connectivity, low ongoing council tax, and straightforward layout for short-term lettings. For cautious buyers, factor in local area socio-economic challenges and the electric heating when assessing rental income and long-term appeal.
