A well-presented two-bedroom ground-floor flat just 0.2 miles from Folkestone Harbour and Sunny Sands. Converted in 2018, the apartment combines period exterior character with a modern interior: a bright bay-window living area, compact modern kitchen, and contemporary shower room. The principal bedroom is generous for the size; the second bedroom works well as a guest room or home office.
Practical details add to the appeal for first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors: a share of freehold (one third), an exceptionally long lease (c.990 years), and no fixed service charge reported — maintenance costs are shared between three flats. On-street permit parking is available directly outside, and the flat benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Be realistic about limitations. The overall internal size is small (approx. 515 sq ft) and some rooms are compact. The area records higher crime statistics and is classed as very deprived, which may affect resale expectations and lettings in parts. Parking is by street permit only — there is no private parking. The building sits in a Victorian terrace and, while converted recently, external parts may require typical upkeep associated with older properties.
For buyers wanting sea-adjacent living without intensive maintenance, this flat offers a low-upkeep, contemporary base with strong transport links to the town and high-speed services. It suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable coastal home or investors looking for a straightforward let close to the seafront.
