Summary - 19 CARLTON LEAS FOLKESTONE CT20 2DJ
2 bed 2 bath Apartment
Third-floor, balcony and secure underground parking in a sought-after coastal location.
Panoramic English Channel and promenade sea views
A rare third-floor apartment with sweeping panoramic views across the English Channel and The Leas promenade. The south-facing living room opens onto a balcony framed by sea views, creating a bright, relaxed living space. The block includes a passenger lift, secure underground parking and communal landscaped lawns.
Accommodation includes two double bedrooms (one with ensuite), a separate kitchen and a family bathroom. The property benefits from UPVC double glazing and modern electric heating, making it straightforward to maintain. Total area is approximately 878 sq ft — comfortable for a couple or small family.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with 79 years remaining — this may restrict mortgage options and lenders could refuse to lend. Annual service charge and ground rent are significant; expect an annual service charge of £3,787.28 and ground rent of £300. The property sits in an area with high recorded crime and notable deprivation, which buyers should factor into living or rental decisions.
Offered chain-free, the apartment suits buyers seeking seaside living or a coastal investment, but prospective purchasers should obtain mortgage and lease-advice before proceeding. Some buyers may wish to budget for longer-term lease extension costs and consider the implications of electric room heating for running costs.
