This studio apartment is located at the heart of Folkestone's harbour with less than a 2 minute walk to The Harbour Arm and The Old High Street with independent shops and restaurants. Right next to the Creative Quarter, you'll always have an event or festival to go to or take part in. Perfect for someone that is a first-time buyer or wanting a second home with sea views. This area is very up and coming with the new Sea Front Development plans to elongate the amenities of the Harbour Arm on to your door step, an excellent investment opportunity with potential of high future value increase.
The property itself offers a small foyer leading into the open plan single-room dwelling space, with a large double glazed window to enjoy the sea views. Off from the foyer is the family bathroom equipped with a bath unit.

The property has access to off street parking around the back. Although it does not have a private garden, it has a large open lawn for residence, or cross the road to the beach.

"Pavilion Court was my first step on the property ladder and it was a great place to live! It is just across the road from the beach, a short walk to the shops in the Creative Quarter and further up into the town, as well as close to eateries and the newly developed and thriving Harbour Arm. It even has off road parking which not many central properties have! I refurbished the flat when I moved in and it was a lovely cosy retreat. Having 3 internal walls and floors above, as well as being a cosy size, meant it is easy and cheap to heat. There can be a nice community feel with other residents in your corridor which I enjoyed as a single professional on my own for the first time. The current management and maintenance team are doing a fantastic job in improving the building in line with the regeneration of the area, and I have every confidence of it not only remaining a great place to live but will be even better in the near future.
After I moved out a few years ago, I rented my flat out and there's always demand for these studio apartments, so future investors wouldn't have difficulty in finding tenants. The flat currently has a tenant who will be moving out shortly (further photos will then be available) and the property would benefit from a refresh to bring it back to its best condition, but due to its size, this would never be a big job. This flat is definitely a great place for both owner-occupiers and investors, and with the continued rise of Folkestone, and this flat's proximity to the beach, harbour and town, it is only going to keep improving in value." - testimonial from the Vendor
