A bright two-bedroom first-floor apartment set within an impressive Victorian building on New Dover Road, only a 10-minute walk from Canterbury city centre. High ceilings, large sash-style windows and an original fireplace give the reception room strong period character and good natural light. The flat extends to about 677 sq ft and includes one allocated off-street parking space.
The apartment is offered chain free and a new 99-year lease will be granted on sale. Service charge is £796 per year (ground rent included). Gas central heating with a boiler and radiators is in place; walls are likely solid brick with no built-in insulation, so buyers should consider potential energy improvement works.
This home requires some modernisation and cosmetic refurbishment throughout — the kitchen and bathroom are functional but dated and the property would benefit from updating, redecoration and possible insulation improvements. Crime levels are reported as high in the immediate area; purchasers should factor location considerations into their plans.
For first-time buyers or investors seeking a period apartment near the city centre, this flat offers a characterful base with parking and long lease security. The proximity to shops, theatres, cathedral attractions and good rail links to London make it a convenient, central option with refurbishment upside.
