Chain-free — ready for a quick purchase
Lift access to third-floor apartment

EPC rating C — scope to improve energy efficiency
Approximately 679 sq ft, two bedrooms, one bathroom
Set on the desirable West End of Folkestone, this two-bedroom apartment offers light, airy rooms and stunning Channel views from an open-plan living space. The third-floor position is easily reached by lift, and the flat is chain-free — a straightforward purchase for a first-time buyer wanting coastal living without delay.
The apartment sits in a characterful period building with high ceilings, large sash windows and communal entrance. The layout includes a generous open-plan kitchen/dining/sitting room, two roomy bedrooms and a separate bathroom across approximately 679 sq ft. A long lease of about 980 years and an EPC rating of C are strong ownership positives.
Practical considerations: heating is via electric storage heaters and the walls are solid brick with internal insulation — both factors that may affect running costs and renovation approach. The area shows average crime and local deprivation indicators; buyers should consider local services and travel links alongside the home’s benefits.
This is a property for someone who values character, sea views and a ready-to-update space. It’s ideal for a first-time buyer or couple seeking a well-located coastal flat with scope to personalise and improve energy performance over time.
