Summary - Flat 8, 28-29, Hawley Square CT9 1PH
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Characterful two-bedroom apartment with long lease and no onward chain.
Top-floor two-bedroom apartment in Grade II listed Georgian conversion
Set on prestigious Hawley Square, this top-floor two-bedroom apartment occupies a Grade II listed Georgian conversion near Margate’s cultural quarter. The flat has classic period features — sash windows, high ceilings and a characterful layout — and comes with a newly issued 999-year lease, gas central heating and no onward chain, making it straightforward to buy and occupy.
Accommodation is arranged around an open-plan living room with kitchen, two double bedrooms, a bathroom and separate WC. The property is compact (approximately 614 sq ft) but benefits from good natural light and town and distant sea views from the upper floor windows. Council Tax is in band A which keeps running costs low.
Important practical points: the building’s Grade II listed status may restrict alterations and could complicate modernisation or thermal improvements. The area has high crime rates and very high deprivation statistics, so buyers should weigh location trade-offs carefully. Service charges average around £1,200 per year (about £100 pcm).
This home will suit buyers seeking an affordable entry into Margate’s town centre — particularly first-time buyers or buyers looking for a characterful pied-à-terre or rental opportunity. The property’s position close to Turner Contemporary, Dreamland and good rail links to London adds appeal, but expect limitations on structural changes due to the listed status.
