Summary - RICHMOND HOUSE, 1 FLAT 10 RICHMOND STREET HERNE BAY CT6 5LU
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Perfect weekend retreat or income-producing holiday let close to town amenities.
Dual-aspect sea views from open-plan lounge and bay windows
Set on the first floor of Richmond House, this corner flat delivers spectacular dual-aspect sea views from an impressive open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining space. The apartment is noticeably bright with high ceilings and large bay windows that frame the coastline — a clear draw for short-stay guests or buyers seeking a light-filled weekend base.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (circa 998 years), a share of the freehold, pets allowed and a manageable service charge of £1,440 per year. The layout — one double bedroom, modern shower room and generous living area — suits holiday-let operation or a pied-à-terre for regular coastal visits.
Buyers should be aware of material local issues: the area records very high crime levels and high deprivation, which can affect long-term rental demand and resale premium. Service charge and council tax (Band A) are moderate, but professional checks on management, safety compliance and insurance are advisable before purchase.
For investors or lifestyle buyers seeking strong coastal appeal, the apartment offers immediate lettings potential and low running complications thanks to the long lease and share-of-freehold arrangement. For buyers prioritising quiet suburban streets or high neighbourhood safety, the location’s social profile and crime statistics are important negatives to weigh.
