This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment offers a compact, modern layout designed for practical everyday living. The open-plan living/kitchen and principal en-suite maximise usable space across the 599 sq ft footprint, making the flat easy to maintain and move into. Allocated off-street parking and tidy communal grounds add convenience seldom found at this size and price point.
Positioned in Whitstable, the property benefits from coastal attractions, local shops and good rail links into London—appealing to first-time buyers seeking lifestyle and commuter access, or investors targeting steady rental demand. The building is modern (constructed 2007–2011) with double glazing and an air source heat pump serving the radiators and electric systems.
Important leasehold facts and running costs: the flat is leasehold with approximately 110 years remaining. Annual service charge is around £1,100 and the ground rent is £600 per year (noted as relatively high). Council tax is described as cheap. Buyers should weigh these ongoing costs against the low-maintenance benefits.
Known negatives are straightforward: the accommodation is small for a two-bedroom flat and external amenity is limited to communal gardens rather than a private garden. Local crime levels are reported as above average; prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves on neighbourhood safety. There is no flood risk recorded. Overall, this is a tidy, well-presented home offering entry-level ownership or buy-to-let potential, provided buyers accept leasehold costs and the modest internal space.
