CURRENTLY UNDER OFFER

The flat is on the 10th floor of the iconic Arlington House, a 1960s 18-floor high rise concrete tower block in Margate. The building is featured in the journal of the 20th century society issue 2020/1. Located just 100 yards from the main Margate sands and 200 yards from the main line train station, the flat is ideally situated for use as a home or a holiday home. The accommodation consists of an L shaped open plan living/dining/kitchen room, bedroom, bathroom. With sea views across the beach, the Harbour Arm, The Turner Gallery and Dreamland amusement park, it offers the best ‘working from home’ or ‘get away from it all’ views you will find.

This is a spectacular investment opportunity to purchase an architect designed flat, with fabulous sea views, in Margate - the town receiving so much positive publicity as it expands its artistic, creative communities and a growing reputation for excellent restaurants.

The flat has been totally renovated and provides spectacular views over the sea and the changing panoramic skies. Originally a three-bedroom flat, refurbished in 2016/17 to create a much larger generous one double bedroom flat, it is modern, bright and airy. Situated on the sunrise side of the building receiving early morning sun, the flat also benefits viewing the sunset through the sea facing gable end bedroom window. There is solid ash parquet flooring through the flat except to the shower room which is tiled.

Living/Dining Room: An L shaped open plan room with space seating, a large dining area and sofa/sofa-bed (for any guests).

Kitchen: The kitchen work surface is made of concrete with a 1.5 stainless-steel sink and all the kitchen cupboards are faced in plyboard creating a contemporary feel and providing floor to ceiling storage. The splash back is made of stainless steel and follows the contours of the wall and countertop. There is an integrated dishwasher and fridge along with an electric oven and a counter induction hob. Ample electrical points and large work surface.

Bedroom: The redesign has been to accommodate a queen size bed but could easily be used for two singles, with a large floor to ceiling cupboard with sliding doors providing ample storage space.

Shower room: Making the most effective use of the space, there is a separate walk-in (monsoon) shower (tiled in recycled mosaics) with wash basin housed in a concrete surround with mirrored cupboard, large wall mirror and toilet. The room is heated by an electric water filled towel rail. The floor is matching grey porcelain concrete effect tiles.

EPC rating D 66 in 2016. Considerably improved subsequently with secondary glazing and upgraded insulation to the walls and flooring and Herschel digitally controlled slimline panel electric infrared radiators.
Length of lease: The lease has recently been extended to 2165
