Bright ground-floor apartment with private parking — cash buyers only due to lease length.
Three double bedrooms, generous 906 sq ft layout
A bright, ground-floor three-bedroom apartment in Squires Court, Canterbury Gardens — practical city living with private parking and generous natural light. The living room benefits from large windows and wood flooring; the kitchen is well appointed for everyday use. At about 906 sq ft the layout is comfortably proportioned for a first home, family or buy-to-let.
Location is a clear strength: close to public transport, local shops, supermarkets and parks, with a mix of schools nearby including an outstanding-rated primary. Off-street private parking is uncommon for the area and helps this flat stand out for owners with a car.
Important purchaser note: the lease has about 61 years remaining and the sale is for cash buyers only. Many mortgage lenders may refuse to lend on this term, which limits mortgage availability and could affect resale. There is an average service charge of £3,907 per year — factor this into running costs even though council tax is in Band A and described as very cheap.
The flat is presented neutrally and appears move-in ready, with double glazing and gas central heating. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, so if working from home or streaming is important, check providers beforehand. Overall this is a sensible, well-located property with clear potential for an owner-occupier or a cash investor prepared to manage the lease and service-charge considerations.
