This ground floor flat at Kite Farm, Swalecliffe, Whitstable, is listed at £200,000. It’s a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom property. The property’s location is a strength, offering proximity to Swalecliffe beach, local shops, and the Chestfield & Swalecliffe train station (0.74km), providing convenient access to Canterbury and other locations. The presence of several good schools within a reasonable distance adds to the property’s family-friendliness.

However, the property’s condition presents a noticeable drawback. The images reveal a need for renovation and modernisation throughout. The flooring, kitchen, and garden all require considerable attention and investment. The garden, though present, is currently overgrown.

The property’s price relative to other properties in the area presents a mixed picture. While there are properties listed for a lower price, the location and potential of the flat could justify the asking price. However, a buyer would need to factor in the necessary renovation costs. The lack of precise square footage in some comparable listings makes a precise price-per-square-foot analysis impossible, but considering similar properties, it’s in a reasonable range for the area. A detailed survey should be carried out prior to purchase to determine the extent of necessary repairs.

In summary, the property presents an opportunity for a buyer willing to undertake renovations. The excellent location and the presence of a garden are strong positives, balanced by a significant need for updating. A thorough inspection is crucial to accurately assess the repair costs before committing to a purchase.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
