A compact one-bedroom flat tucked just off Broadstairs’ bustling high street, offered chain free with a share of the freehold. The apartment is a practical lock-up-and-leave base for weekend coastal breaks or first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry to seaside living. Broadstairs station, cafes, shops and Viking Bay are all within easy walking distance.
The accommodation is tidy but dated: original period features such as bay windows and high ceilings remain in the building, while the flat itself shows signs of wear and would benefit from modernization and cosmetic updating. Heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators; glazing is double glazed though install date is unknown. EPC rating is D.
Notable positives include very low council tax, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for remote working or holiday let potential. Practical considerations: the building was constructed in the 1930s–40s with cavity walls assumed uninsulated, and the area records higher crime levels than average. There is no flood risk.
This property suits buyers after an affordable seaside bolt-hole or an investor wanting a short-term holiday let with straightforward access to local amenities. Be prepared for improvement work to raise energy efficiency and refresh interiors; the share of freehold helps control longer-term service arrangements.
