Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment in Folkestone Central presents a well-maintained and modern living space. The property boasts a recently renovated kitchen and bathroom with contemporary fixtures and finishes. The interior is presented in excellent condition and is attractively decorated. The location is a key strength, offering good access to Folkestone’s train stations, providing convenient links to London. The proximity to schools, particularly the Outstanding-rated Harvey Grammar School, enhances the property’s family appeal. However, it is crucial to note the absence of any outdoor space, limiting its appeal to potential buyers who desire a garden. The asking price aligns with similar properties in the area, and given the renovation work that is likely to have been carried out, makes this a relatively reasonable purchase for a flat in this location. A full professional survey and inspection are recommended to assess the property thoroughly.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
