This bright first-floor apartment offers practical, contemporary living a short walk from Canterbury city centre. The generous double-aspect open-plan lounge/kitchen opens onto a small balcony, bringing in natural light and creating a versatile space for socialising, working from home or relaxing. Two double bedrooms include an en suite to the principal, while a modern family bathroom serves guests.
Allocated off-street parking and a low-density, purpose-built block add everyday convenience. The building is modern (constructed 2007–2011) with double glazing and gas central heating, making the home efficient and straightforward to run. The apartment is offered chain-free and has a long lease (106 years).
Buyers should note the running costs: an average annual service charge of £2,500 and a ground rent of £250. The property sits in a ward recorded with higher crime levels and a generally deprived local area classification, which may affect resale considerations and should be weighed alongside the central location and rental demand from nearby universities.
This flat suits a first-time buyer or investor seeking a low-maintenance city-base within easy reach of shops, transport links and green spaces. Viewing is recommended to assess finish and layout in person and to confirm the suitability of the neighbourhood for your needs.
