About this home

DW008 Being sold with no onward chain. Set within Folkestone's popular Scholars Village development, this first-floor two-bedroom apartment offers modern, purpose-built living in a location that makes day-to-day life particularly easy. Built circa 2015, the property combines allocated parking, excellent visitor parking and easy access to both Folkestone Central, Radnor park and the town centre. Step inside and the apartment opens into a spacious central hallway, with the accommodation flowing naturally from here. The standout space is undoubtedly the open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting room, which gives the apartment a bright, sociable feel and allows for clearly defined areas to cook, dine and relax without losing that free-flowing layout. The kitchen is neatly incorporated into the room and comes with a built-in dishwasher, washing machine and fridge freezer, helping keep the overall space practical, streamlined and uncluttered. There are two bedrooms positioned away from the main living area, with the principal bedroom particularly well proportioned and benefiting from fitted wardrobes that provide useful built-in storage. The second bedroom offers plenty of flexibility, whether used as a guest room, home office or permanent bedroom, while the bathroom is conveniently positioned from the hallway. The apartment also benefits from newly installed Hillarys fitted blinds, added within the last month, provide another smart finishing touch throughout. Ruskin House was purpose-built with apartment living in mind, including soundproofing designed to help reduce noise transfer between neighbouring homes and create a quieter, more comfortable environment. The property also offers a good sense of space without the upkeep associated with a larger house, making it particularly well suited to first-time buyers, commuters, downsizers or anyone looking for a low-maintenance base in Folkestone. Outside, the apartment comes with its own allocated parking space for one vehicle, while an abundance of visitor parking nearby makes having friends and family over straightforward. The location is another major strength. Folkestone Central is within easy walking distance, making the property particularly convenient for commuters using the high-speed rail service towards London, while Folkestone town centre and its growing selection of shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities are also close at hand. With approximately 116 years remaining on the lease, a spacious open-plan layout and the increasingly valuable combination of parking, modern construction and strong transport links, this apartment offers an appealing and practical home in one of Folkestone's most convenient residential developments. Footprints Presenter Tour available (please see video tab).
