Well-located two-bed with balcony, long lease and strong transport links.
Balcony with elevated town views
This modern two-bedroom apartment on Waterhouse Avenue offers a practical, well-presented base in central Maidstone. The open-plan living and kitchen area flows to a private balcony with elevated town views, creating a bright social space for everyday living. The master bedroom has an en suite; both bathrooms keep the layout flexible for sharers or a small family.
Practical details are strong: the property extends to around 786 sq ft, benefits from a very long 995-year lease, and has fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for commuters and home workers. The location is genuinely convenient, within walking distance of Maidstone East and West stations, town centre amenities, and quick access to the A229/M20 for longer commutes.
Buyers should note the material running costs and local safety context. Annual service charge is around £1,800 and ground rent is £350. The wider area records a very high crime level, which may affect some buyers’ sense of security and insurance costs. The apartment is average-sized and well-maintained but does not present as a turnkey luxury property; minor updating or personalisation may be desired.
Overall this apartment suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a well-located, low-maintenance home with strong connectivity and a long lease. Viewings are recommended for anyone prioritising transport links and a modern apartment layout, but factor in service charges and local crime when assessing suitability.
