Newly renovated top-floor flat, sea views and holiday-let income in central Margate.
Top-floor one-bedroom with sublime sea views
Perched on the top floor with sweeping sea views, this newly renovated one-bedroom flat is offered fully furnished and currently earning a substantial holiday-let income. The open-plan kitchen/lounge benefits from natural light and compact modern fittings—ideal as a bolt-hole by the beach or a straightforward first home.
Practical strengths include a very long effective lease (share of freehold), low service charge and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. Room sizes are generous for the building age, ceilings are tall and the property retains period character while feeling fresh throughout. There is no flood risk.
Buyers should be aware the area shows very high recorded crime and is ranked very deprived; the neighbourhood has a lively, cosmopolitan, student-led character. Heating is by electric room heaters, the building’s solid brick walls likely lack insulation and glazing install dates are unknown. These factors may mean higher running costs and potential retrofit work.
This flat suits a first-time buyer seeking seaside lifestyle or an investor/holiday-owner wanting immediate income. It’s an accessible, low-maintenance package with clear potential for further value from energy improvements and continued short-let use.
