A substantial Victorian block in Radnor Park, Folkestone, offered as a freehold investment. The building comprises six two-bedroom apartments (twelve bedrooms in total), set over three floors with period features such as high ceilings, bay windows and decorative cornices. Several flats show recent updates to kitchens and open-plan living areas; others present a blank-canvas opportunity for cosmetic improvement.
The location is a strong commuter draw: central Folkestone and the mainline station (HS1 to London) are within walking distance, improving rental demand. Mobile signal and broadband speeds are reported excellent and fast, supporting modern tenancy needs. Ground-floor flats benefit from private rear gardens; upper units have roof garden areas.
Important practical points for buyers: the block is currently fully let, sold freehold, and historically averages low council tax charges. The area is classified as very deprived with above-average recorded crime — factors that affect rent levels, tenant turnover and management needs. Some apartments require cosmetic works (painting, minor repairs) and mechanical/service items have not been professionally tested in the particulars.
This property suits a hands-on investor or portfolio buyer seeking steady commuter rental income with scope to add value through selective refurbishment and professional management. Buyers should factor in active estate management, potential void periods, and enhanced security or service costs given local area indicators.
