Hawley Square is located on the outer edge of Margate Old town and is the first Georgian square in Margate to include an enclosed pleasure ground. It owes its name and origins to Sir Henry Hawley (1745-1826) who was created the 1st baronet of Leybourne Grange, near Maidstone, in 1795 (The Peerage) and who owned the field on which the square was built.
With leafy avenues and sheltered green squares, a bustling High Street with a mix of shops and services, relaxed cafes, pubs and restaurants and of course not forgetting its proximity to the main Margate Sands with miles of blue flag winning beaches a short walk away. The Turner Contemporary Art Gallery has placed Margate on the Map culturally and with many new galleries including the newly opened Carl Friedman Gallery a short walk away. It's also an effortless commute into London via St Pancras using the High Speed Railway,- it combines all the pleasures of living by the Kent coast with easy access to the city.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
- Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
- Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
- Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
- ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
