The property is a two-bedroom apartment located in Cheriton Gardens, Folkestone, Kent. It’s within easy reach of Folkestone Central train station (0.69km), providing convenient access to transport links. The area also boasts several well-regarded schools, including Christ Church Cep Academy (0.35km) and St Eanswythe’s Church of England Primary School (0.82km), both rated ‘Good’ or ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted. This suggests a desirable location for families.
The apartment itself appears to be in good condition based on the provided images. The kitchen and bathroom have been recently modernised, and while the living areas are unfurnished, they show no signs of significant damage or disrepair. The presence of a small balcony and communal garden space is a positive feature.
While the plot size is listed as 0.00 sqft, the images show access to a communal garden area. The size of this area is not specified, so a definitive assessment of the land score is not possible.
Considering the list price of £230,000, the average price of similar properties in the area (£257,796) and the average price per sqft (£293), the property seems reasonably priced. However, the lack of sqft data for comparable properties makes a precise price comparison difficult. The property’s modern features and convenient location could justify a price slightly above the average price per sqft for the area.
Based on the provided images, the property does not appear to require renovation and has a modern aesthetic. There are no period features visible.
Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
