A compact one-bedroom mid-floor flat in central Folkestone, offered for cash buyers. The block has lift access and modern build details from 2007–2011, making the apartment straightforward to manage for a lettings portfolio or buy-to-let starter purchase.
The interior is modest at about 410 sq ft with a contemporary open-plan kitchen/lounge and a single bedroom. The layout is tidy and well maintained but offers clear scope for cosmetic improvement to increase rental yield or resale value. Broadband and mobile connectivity are strong—useful for modern tenants.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold with about 107 years remaining and is available to cash buyers only. The wider area records high crime levels and significant local deprivation, which may affect tenant demand and investor exit strategies. Council tax is very low, and the location benefits from good schools, nearby amenities and easy access to the Harbour Arm, M20 and high-speed rail to London.
Overall this is a practical, low-maintenance investment opportunity for an investor comfortable operating in a challenging local market and able to complete a cash purchase. Verify lease and appliances with your solicitor; some fixtures and services are sold as seen.
