Contemporary low-maintenance flat ideal for first-time buyers or investors.
First-floor one-bedroom apartment with balcony overlooking the River Medway
This bright one-bedroom apartment sits on the first floor of a modern 2023 development, backing onto the River Medway with a balcony off the open-plan living area. The layout maximises the 528 sq ft with a well-fitted contemporary kitchen, a generous bedroom and a compact bathroom — ideal for a single buyer or couple wanting low-maintenance city living close to Maidstone town centre.
Practical running costs are clear: mains gas boiler and radiators, fast broadband availability and two residents’ permit parking spaces. The long lease (997 years) removes typical short-lease concerns, but the property is leasehold with an annual service charge of approximately £1,469 — factor this into total housing costs. The immediate area is described as deprived, which may affect longer-term capital growth compared with stronger neighbourhoods.
The flat is newly finished and presented to a high standard, so it requires no immediate works and is ready to move into or let. Average mobile signal and fast broadband make it suitable for remote working. Buyers should verify all lease and service-charge details with their solicitor before committing.
For first-time buyers seeking a contemporary, low-upkeep home or investors looking for a new-build rental close to town, this apartment offers a convenient, riverside setting with modern fittings and clear tenure terms. The compact footprint and local area profile are the main considerations when assessing suitability and future value.
