This spacious ground-floor flat occupies a purpose-built mid-century block close to Folkestone town centre and both train stations, making it a practical choice for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The apartment offers two double bedrooms, a large living room with a bay window, a separate kitchen and bathroom, plus a garage — a rare convenience in town-centre flats.
The property is chain free and comes with a share of freehold and a very long lease (circa 940 years). Heating is gas-fired via a boiler and radiators; glazing is double, and the building’s cavity walls are filled. Practical positives include low local crime, no flood risk and cheap council tax.
Buyers should note this is a 1950s/1960s block that shows period construction and will likely benefit from cosmetic updating throughout to maximise comfort and rental value. There is an annual service charge (around £1,600) and a small ground rent (£100). Broadband is average — sufficient for routine use but not high-speed specialist needs.
Overall this is a solid, well-located flat with garage and long lease, offering clear potential for sensible refurbishment to increase appeal or rental income. Prospective purchasers should verify lease and service-charge details with their solicitor and survey for condition before committing.
