High flood risk — insurance and resilience needed
Local area records very high crime rates
Light-filled, split-level two-bedroom apartment in the Tannery development, offered with no onward chain and 104 years remaining on the lease. The lower floor provides an open living/dining area with floor-to-ceiling glazing and a Juliet balcony, while the upper floor houses two double bedrooms including a master with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite. Allocated off-street parking and communal gardens add practical value for city living.
The home is immaculately presented with a modern fitted kitchen and contemporary bathrooms. Construction dates (2003–2006) and recent double glazing suggest good thermal performance for a modern build, though main heating is by electric room heaters. The property benefits from lift access to the block entrance but has had no accessibility adaptations.
Important considerations: the location carries a high flood risk and very high local crime levels, factors that will affect insurance and long-term suitability. The tenure is leasehold with 104 years remaining; service charges and ground rent are not specified and should be confirmed. This is a compact, low-maintenance city apartment suited to buyers wanting central access to Canterbury’s amenities, investors targeting city rental demand, or first-time buyers seeking a ready-to-move-in home.
