A bright one-bedroom second-floor flat in Hythe, offered chain-free with a long 151-year lease. The apartment sits within a handsome Edwardian terrace and combines period character—high ceilings and large front windows—with a contemporary fitted kitchen and modern bathroom. Its compact layout suits a single occupant or couple seeking a low-maintenance first home or a buy-to-let purchase.
Practical details are straightforward: gas central heating with boiler and radiators, mains services, and an entry-phone system. The property is close to the seafront, local shops, cafés and leisure routes, with good transport links to Folkestone and Ashford International for commuting.
Buyers should note the flat is small (approximately 325 sq ft) and on the second floor of a building likely without a lift, which may limit accessibility. The building is of solid brick construction, probably without wall insulation, and the area has a medium flood risk—these are important factors for long-term running costs and any future retrofit work.
Service charge totals about £1,000 a year (paid £500 twice yearly). Tenure is leasehold with 151 years remaining. Overall, this chain-free apartment offers a well-presented, affordable entry into Hythe’s market with straightforward maintenance and attractive local amenities.
