Property Oracle says ..
This listing presents a two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment located in a retirement complex on Sandgate Road in Folkestone. The property is situated in what appears to be a convenient location, relatively close to the town centre, railway station and schools. The accommodation is presented as clean and well-maintained, although the images suggest that some modernization within the kitchen and bathroom may be desirable. The apartment benefits from access to communal gardens, offering some outdoor space. The price point is in line with other similar retirement properties in the immediate area, making it competitively priced. A key consideration is that the property is within a retirement complex and does not offer the independence or space of a larger property. While the location and overall condition of the property are positive aspects, the limited land and the targeted market of retirement living influence the overall assessment. Potential buyers should weigh their personal needs and preferences for a retirement property when assessing its value.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
