Summary - 7A ACORN PLACE, MAIDSTONE ME15 9LX
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Low-price auction lot with parking and outdoor storage, needs modernisation.
Ground-floor one-bedroom flat, 451 sq ft, chain-free
This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment is offered chain-free and sold via online auction, presenting a straightforward entry-point for a first-time buyer or investor. The layout includes a double bedroom, living room, separate kitchen and bathroom across an average-sized 451 sq ft plan. The property needs modernisation, allowing the buyer to add value and personalise the space.
Practical benefits include residents’ off-street parking, an outdoor storage unit, double glazing (installed before 2002), mains gas heating with boiler and radiators, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The lease has approximately 94 years remaining and the current service charge is about £1,062 per year; the tenure is leasehold so legal diligence is essential.
Buyers should note material considerations: the flat requires renovation, the building is mid-terrace system-built (likely lacking wall insulation), and the surrounding area shows higher-than-average crime and local deprivation indicators. The sale is via auction — bidders must follow the auctioneer’s terms, including a 5% non-refundable deposit on exchange and a reservation fee where applicable, so allow for these additional upfront costs.
For someone prepared to refurbish, this flat offers a low entry price and practical perks close to local amenities and schools. Homebuyers should review the legal pack and factor in renovation cost, lease length and auction fees before bidding.
