Summary - Flat 6/B The Cloisters, 53-57, King Street CT1 2XS
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
City-centre home with long lease and no ground rent in the Cathedral Quarter.
First-floor modern one-bedroom apartment with open-plan living
A bright one-bedroom apartment set on the first floor of a small, modern block in Canterbury city centre. The open-plan living/kitchen benefits from a contemporary fitted kitchen and a window with cathedral views, while the double bedroom faces the Marlowe Theatre. A large walk-in storage cupboard and communal rear garden add practical city-living comforts.
This property is offered with no forward chain and a long 240-year lease with no ground rent — clear positives for buyers wanting straightforward ownership. Gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C give reasonable running costs for a central location. Total internal area is about 484 sq ft, suitable for single buyers or professionals.
Notable considerations: the service charge is approximately £1,500 per year and the neighbourhood records very high crime levels, which may affect security and insurance costs. The glazing was installed before 2002 and some fixtures and services have not been tested; buyers should arrange their own checks. Overall, this apartment suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-maintenance city-centre base with strong local amenities and good lease terms.
