This one-bedroom first-floor flat sits in a sought-after central Canterbury spot, a short walk from Canterbury West station and city amenities. At about 549 sq ft, the apartment offers a practical layout with a double bedroom, open-plan living/dining space, recently refurbished bathroom, and a large storage room that could double as a home office.
Stand-out features include allocated off-street parking, access to a well-maintained communal garden and a new boiler with a six-year warranty. The finish is clean and modern following recent renovation, making the property move-in ready for a first-time buyer or appealing as a buy-to-let asset in an area of strong rental demand.
Important practical points: the lease has c.103 years remaining, annual service charge £850 and ground rent £10. Construction era (1967–75) and cavity walls suggest the property may lack modern wall insulation; double glazing is present but installation date is unknown. Council tax band and tenure details are not stated and should be confirmed.
Location strengths are balanced by local context: the neighbourhood records higher crime and area deprivation statistics, though transport links, nearby schools and city-centre convenience help retain broad appeal. Buyers should view with awareness of the local socio-economic profile and check detailed energy and security reports if these factors are important.
