Set on the first floor of a handsome Victorian mid-terrace, this newly renovated two-bedroom flat offers compact, ready-to-live accommodation just minutes from Folkestone town centre and the seafront. At about 555 sq ft, the layout is practical: a bright bay-windowed lounge, modern fitted kitchen, two bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom — ideal for a first home or a buy-to-let starter.
The property combines period charm with recent updates; double glazing and a modern boiler with radiators provide everyday comfort. The long remaining lease (167 years) and a sensible council tax band give added security. High-speed rail to London and local amenities are within easy walking distance, making commuting and rental demand straightforward.
Buyers should note the flat’s compact size and solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation — further thermal upgrades could improve efficiency. The building’s service charge (around £2,040 annually) and urban setting in a deprived but regenerating area are practical considerations for budgeting and investment forecasts.
Overall this is a low-maintenance, move-in-ready period flat that suits first-time buyers seeking a coastal town lifestyle or investors targeting steady rental demand close to transport links and local schools.
