The property is a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom flat located on West Parade in Hythe, Kent. It boasts a desirable location directly overlooking the beach, offering stunning sea views. This is a significant advantage, likely contributing to a higher-than-average price in the area. The proximity to the beach enhances its desirability and could attract buyers seeking a coastal lifestyle. The nearby transportation links to Sandling, Westenhanger, Folkestone West, and Folkestone Central stations provide convenient access to other areas. Furthermore, several well-regarded schools are within a reasonable distance, including Hythe Bay Cofe Primary School (Good Ofsted rating) and Saltwood Cofe Primary School (Outstanding Ofsted rating). This makes the property attractive to families. Based on the provided images, the property appears to be in excellent condition. It is modern, well-maintained, and features a contemporary design. The fixtures and fittings seem new or recently updated, suggesting minimal need for renovation. The kitchen and bathrooms are modern and stylish. There is no evidence of wear and tear. The property’s plot size is listed as 0.00 sqft, indicating no private garden. This is typical for flats, especially those in coastal locations. However, the lack of outdoor space is a potential drawback for some buyers. The list price of £700,000 is significantly higher than the average price of £498,567 for the area. However, the average price per sqft in the area is £393.00, and this property is smaller than average. The premium price is likely justified by its exceptional location directly on the seafront and its modern, high-quality finish. The nearby comparable properties support this, with prices ranging from £230,000 to £730,000, showcasing a wide price range in the area. The higher-priced properties are likely also influenced by their proximity to the sea. The lack of plot size data for many comparable properties makes a precise comparison difficult.

Therefore, we give this property 7 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
