SHARE OF FREEHOLD | This charming ground-floor maisonette, part of a purpose-built block, offers a fantastic opportunity for first-time buyers or investors. With the advantage of a share of freehold, a long lease of 960 years, no ground rent, and a low service charge, it stands out as an appealing purchase. The property includes allocated parking and access to a communal garden, enhancing its practicality and appeal.

Situated on the eastern side of Sittingbourne, the property is conveniently positioned for access to the Eurolink and lies just 1.5 miles from the mainline railway station and town centre. The allocated parking space is located at the front, with gated access leading to the communal garden at the rear.

Inside, the property welcomes you with a porch that opens into an open-plan living and kitchen area, ideal for hosting guests. A hallway with two cupboards connects to the bedroom and a bathroom fitted with a white suite and a shower over the bath. Additional features include UPVC double-glazed windows and gas-fired central heating, ensuring comfort and efficiency.

Sittingbourne offers excellent transport links, including direct train services to London Victoria and high-speed connections to St. Pancras International. The town boasts a range of leisure facilities, such as the Swallows Leisure Centre, Avenue Theatre, a cinema, and a bowling complex, making it an engaging and convenient place to live.

Service Charge Information:
Each leaseholder is responsible for contributing 25% of the annual buildings insurance policy cost. We have been advised that this 25% share has not exceeded £180 per year. Additionally, the cost of maintaining the communal garden and any general repairs is divided equally among the four leaseholders and is arranged on an ad hoc basis. The total cost for tax year 2023/2024 was approximately £205.

Identification Checks:
In compliance with Anti-Money Laundering Regulation (AML), it is imperative that we conduct thorough identification checks for every purchaser. These checks will be facilitated by a trusted third-party provider, incurring a fee of £30 including VAT per purchase. Please be advised that this fee is payable in advance and is non-refundable. Kindly note that we are unable to issue a memorandum of sale until these statutory obligations have been diligently met.
