A bright penthouse in a handsome Georgian terrace offering panoramic sea views and spacious living across three flexible rooms. The property has a modern fitted kitchen and double glazing, giving comfortable, low-maintenance living in a sought-after coastal stretch of Margate. The long lease (approx. 990 years) and share of freehold provide ownership security unusual at this price point.
This home suits first-time buyers seeking affordable coastal living or investors after a lettable, three-bedroom flat close to town and beach amenities. The generous living room and two double bedrooms (plus a study/third bedroom) give everyday flexibility for home work, guests or rental demand. Communal garden and beach access enhance the lifestyle appeal.
Buyers should note this property is sold by Modern Method of Auction with a reserve and buyer fees. A non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, min. £6,600 inc. VAT) and a £300 Buyer Information Pack apply; identification checks cost £60. There is an average service charge of £1,688 and heating is by electric room heaters — running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes.
The location offers excellent mobile signal and nearby schools rated Good, but the immediate area records higher crime and deprivation indicators and broadband speeds are slow. The flat is chain-free with substantial renovation potential if you wish to personalise or improve energy performance.
