Description

Positioned within the highly regarded Martello Lakes development, this beautifully presented ground-floor apartment offers a rare combination of modern living, excellent accessibility, and an enviable coastal setting. Built in 2023 and still feeling very much like a brand-new home, it presents an ideal opportunity for downsizers, professionals, second-home buyers, or anybody seeking the simplicity of single-level living without compromise. With no stairs to navigate, parking directly outside, two bathrooms, and exceptional built-in storage throughout, it is a home that has been designed with everyday convenience firmly in mind.
From the moment you arrive, the practicality of the property is immediately apparent. The allocated parking space sits directly outside the entrance, while the apartment itself benefits from true ground-floor access with no steps or communal stairways to contend with. Once inside, wide hallways and a thoughtfully designed layout create a home that feels both spacious and easy to move around.
At the heart of the apartment is a bright open-plan kitchen, dining and living space. Designed with modern lifestyles in mind, it provides plenty of room for everyday living, entertaining friends, or simply relaxing at the end of the day. The overall finish throughout remains immaculate, reflecting both its recent construction and the care shown by the current owners. Particularly noteworthy is the abundance of built-in storage, with multiple cupboards thoughtfully incorporated throughout the apartment, helping to keep the living spaces uncluttered without sacrificing valuable floor area.
Both bedrooms are comfortable doubles, with the principal bedroom benefiting from its own en-suite shower room. The addition of a separate main bathroom is a significant advantage, providing flexibility for visiting guests and ensuring day-to-day life remains effortless.
Outside, the beautifully maintained surroundings are a key part of the appeal. Martello Lakes has quickly established itself as one of Hythe's most desirable modern developments, centred around attractive landscaped grounds and picturesque lakes that create a peaceful setting to enjoy throughout the year. A children's play area sits nearby, while the surrounding pathways provide pleasant walking routes right from your doorstep.
The location further enhances the lifestyle on offer. The seafront, Royal Military Canal, and Hythe's vibrant High Street are all within easy reach, providing an excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, and everyday amenities. Whether you're looking for a permanent home, a lock-up-and-leave coastal retreat, or a future-proof property that prioritises accessibility, this location continues to prove exceptionally popular.
We've been advised by the current sellers that the service charge for the most recent year was £1128.50, £0 ground rent and the lease length is around 996 years remaining.
Offered to the market chain free, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a nearly new apartment that combines modern efficiency, accessibility, storage, and lifestyle in equal measure.
