Trying to find something nice in central Margate, on the doorstep of Old Town, for under £200,000 is becoming a bit of a challenge these days.
So this one is worth a look.
Set on St John’s Road, this one-bedroom ground-floor apartment puts you right in the thick of it. Step outside, turn left and within moments you’re into the town centre, Old Town and down towards the seafront.
And there’s another big plus here: you own a share of the freehold. No faceless management company calling all the shots. No ridiculous management-agent fees. You get a say in what gets done, when it gets done and how the building is looked after.
Inside, it’s been really well maintained and feels ready to move straight into.
To the rear you’ve got a bright, open-plan living space with a slick fitted kitchen, breakfast bar and a really good-sized lounge area, helped by two large windows bringing in loads of natural light.
The bathroom is seriously cool, and there’s even a separate dressing alcove for those of you who love your clobber.
The bedroom is a great size too, with a lovely bright bay window to the front.
There’s also use of the rear garden — handy, but really, this one is about the apartment itself and where you are.
Move in. Drop your stuff. Walk into town.
If you want to be part of the Margate scene without paying full-on Old Town money, this makes a lot of sense.
