Summary - THE OLD SCHOOL APARTMENT 4 LOWER ROAD TEYNHAM SITTINGBOURNE ME9 9EQ
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Character-filled two-bed with private garden and off-street parking — ideal commuter starter.
Over 900 sq ft of duplex living space with high ceilings and period character
Set within a converted period building, this spacious two-bedroom duplex offers more than the usual apartment — over 900 sq ft of living space, high ceilings and original character details throughout. The layout feels like a small house thanks to its first-floor duplex arrangement and a rare private garden, making it well suited to buyers wanting both character and outside space without a full house.
Practical benefits include off-street parking, a share of freehold with about 102 years remaining, and a location close to Teynham station and local amenities — useful for commuters and first-time buyers seeking convenience. The large, bright living room and well-fitted kitchen make day-to-day living comfortable, while the generous footprint gives scope to reconfigure or improve the interior if desired.
Be aware of a few material points: broadband speeds in the area are slow and the local crime level is above average, so weigh connectivity and local safety considerations. The private garden and front forecourt are sizeable but described as natural/overgrown and will need tidy-up and basic landscaping to reach their full potential. Lease length is healthy for this type of ownership, but buyers should factor in long-term ground rent/service arrangements typical of shared ownership structures.
This apartment will appeal to first-time buyers and commuters who value period character, space and outdoor private amenity without the maintenance of a detached home. If you want a roomy, characterful base with parking and garden access, this is a practical, well-located option that rewards modest investment and personalisation.
