Set on the first floor of a contemporary block built in the mid-2000s, this chain-free one-bedroom flat suits a first-time buyer or investor looking for low-maintenance city living. The layout is traditional and practical: a light lounge facing the front, a medium-sized kitchen/diner with modern cabinetry, a sizeable bedroom and a bathroom. The property benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and an allocated parking space immediately outside the communal entrance.
Practical positives include fast broadband availability, low council tax and easy walking access to Maidstone town centre, nearby stations and the riverside. The construction (2003–2006) and recent glazing suggest a home that will not require immediate major works; mains gas boiler and radiators provide familiar, serviceable heating.
Important factual drawbacks: the flat is leasehold with about 102 years remaining and an annual service charge of £1,767 (approx. £147.28 pcm). The surrounding area scores as a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood within a wider 'hampered aspiration' classification and local crime levels are recorded as very high — these are significant considerations for families and some buyers. The property is average in size (approx. 513 sq ft) and will suit someone seeking compact, central accommodation rather than larger suburban living.
In short, this apartment offers a straightforward, chain-free entry into the Maidstone market with practical fixtures, parking and good connectivity. Buyers should weigh the leasehold running length, service charge and local crime statistics when deciding if this city-centre location fits their priorities.
