Summary - 42b, Claremont Place CT1 3SU
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact, low-cost flat ideal for first buyers or investors near stations and universities.
Allocated off-street parking space included
A compact one-bedroom apartment conveniently positioned a short walk from Canterbury’s High Street and both mainline stations. The property includes an allocated off-street parking space, double glazing, gas central heating and a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances — practical features for a first home or buy-to-let.
The lease is exceptionally long at 957 years with a 50/50 share of freehold and no ground rent. There is no standing service charge; maintenance is handled as needed, which reduces regular costs but may lead to irregular bills for repairs. The flat is small (approximately 355 sq ft) and accessed via an external staircase to a private entrance.
This apartment will suit a single professional, mature student, or first-time buyer seeking low running costs and strong rental appeal thanks to proximity to universities and stations. Note the local area is classified as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood with high crime statistics, so consider security measures. The building dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s and the apartment presents as modern internally but is compact in layout.
Buyers should verify appliances, heating and other services independently. The property offers straightforward investment potential and affordable council tax, balanced against its small size, external-access entrance and higher-crime local profile.
