Summary - Sandgate High Street, Folkestone, Sandgate, CT20 CT20 3BD
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact seaside bolt‑hole ideal for short-term let or coastal retreat.
Chain-free top-floor studio with stunning sea views
This chain-free top-floor apartment is a compact, low-maintenance seaside investment with long lease security. The open-plan studio living area takes advantage of large windows and delivers direct sea views just a stone’s throw from the beach, making it appealing for short-term holiday lets or a lock-up-and-leave coastal bolt-hole. The 998-year lease, nominal ground rent and sub‑average service charge make ownership straightforward and predictable.
Internally the flat is modest in size (approx. 471 sq ft) with a combined living/bedroom, small separate kitchen and compact bathroom — best suited to a single occupant, couple or short-stay guest market. Building and area attributes that support rental demand include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, very low local crime and proximity to Sandgate and Folkestone amenities and coastal walks.
Be aware of a couple of practical points: the property is leasehold, council tax is described as quite expensive and the accommodation is compact, so buyers wanting more living space or a garden should look elsewhere. Also, image notes suggest a period high‑street appearance while construction data lists post‑2007 — buyers should check construction details and any maintenance history during surveys.
Overall, this is a straightforward seaside studio with strong holiday-let potential and long leasehold security, ideal for investors seeking a low‑effort rental or buyers wanting a coastal retreat.
