Compact, modern one-bed close to Maidstone centre and station.
Modern third-floor apartment built 2020, bright open-plan living
A bright third-floor one-bedroom apartment in the modern Springfield complex, finished in 2020 and ready to move into. The open-plan lounge/kitchen leads onto a private balcony, creating a light, flexible living space ideal for a first-time buyer or investor. Allocated underground parking adds convenience in a central location a short walk from Maidstone town centre and Maidstone East station.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (996 years), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Communal landscaped areas and a roof terrace increase outdoor space beyond the balcony. Council tax is described as affordable, and there is no flooding risk for added peace of mind.
Buyers should note material running and local-area considerations: heating is by electric room heaters, which may be more expensive than gas options. The area records very high crime levels and is classified as a deprived, predominantly private-renting neighbourhood—factors that could affect resale or rental demand. The service charge averages £1,162 annually, and the overall apartment is compact at around 417 sq ft.
The property is presented mostly as shown in images; any virtually staged photos illustrate potential styling only. Prospective purchasers should verify lease, service charge, and all fixtures and fittings with their solicitor before proceeding.
