Set on the top floor of a Grade II listed Georgian building close to Margate’s Old Town and seafront, this one-bedroom flat offers an affordable coastal base with no onward chain. The property has been freshly renovated with a newly fitted kitchen, modern shower room, new carpets and fresh décor, making it ready to move into.
Practical features include a newly issued 125-year lease and a compact, sensible layout of approximately 506 sq ft. Electric storage heaters and an all-electric supply simplify services, while council tax band A keeps running costs low. The apartment benefits from good mobile signal and fast broadband, useful for remote working or streaming.
Buyers should note the property’s Grade II listing, which can restrict alterations and may complicate some improvement plans. The energy performance rating is F and the building has solid brick walls likely without insulation, so further energy upgrades may be needed and will be subject to listed-building constraints. The wider area records high crime and significant deprivation, factors to consider for those sensitive to neighbourhood profile or rental prospects.
This flat will suit a first-time buyer or buyer seeking an affordable, low-maintenance pied-à-terre in a well-connected coastal town. The chain-free position and recent refurbishment reduce immediate work, but prospective purchasers should allow time for listed-building permissions and consider energy-improvement costs.
