Summary - FLAT 3, 2, ALBION VILLAS CT20 1RP
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Newly renovated two-bedroom with share of freehold and long lease.
Sea views from large reception and private balcony
This newly renovated two-bedroom flat in Albion Villas sits above Folkestone with direct sea views from a large reception room and private balcony. The accommodation is bright and generously proportioned, with an open-plan kitchen/diner and spacious bedrooms organized over the upper floors. Share of freehold and an exceptionally long lease (approx. 950 years) give real security of tenure.
Practical running costs and ownership details are clear: the service charge is £650 per quarter (c. £2,600 per year) and the property sits in Council Tax Band D. Broadband speeds are average but mobile signal is excellent. The flat is chain free and within easy walking distance of town amenities, transport links and local schools.
Buyers should note material neighbourhood factors. The area is classified as very deprived and local crime levels are very high; these realities may affect day-to-day living, insurance and resale prospects. The communal garden and available parking are positives, but purchasers should budget for ongoing maintenance and confirm any communal management arrangements.
This property will suit a buyer seeking a ready-to-move-in seaside home or a first-time purchaser wanting strong location and long lease security. It offers immediate lifestyle appeal from the views and layout, balanced by clear, factual caveats about the local environment and service costs.
