SHARED OWNERSHIP OPPORTUNITY – 70% SHARE AVAILABLE FOR £154,000 | 100% OWNERSHIP ALSO AVAILABLE FOR £220,000

For many first time buyers, getting onto the property ladder can feel increasingly difficult.

That's why I think this two bedroom coach house on Blunden Drive in Folkestone represents such an interesting opportunity.

Available as a potential Shared Ownership purchase, buyers have the opportunity to purchase a 70% share for £154,000, while those wishing to own the property outright can also purchase 100% for £220,000.

And there's much more to this home than simply the price.

Offering approximately 646 sq ft of accommodation, the property is arranged in a classic coach-house style, with its own ground-floor entrance and hallway leading upstairs to the main living accommodation.

Once upstairs, the real heart of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen and living area, extending to approximately 248 sq ft.

It's a fantastic space for modern-day living, with plenty of room to cook, relax at the end of the day or have friends and family over. The open-plan arrangement gives the room a lovely sense of space and makes it somewhere you can genuinely imagine spending your time.

There are two bedrooms, which adds an important level of flexibility.

Whether you need two dedicated bedrooms, somewhere for guests or perhaps a separate home office, that additional room gives you options as your circumstances change.

The bathroom completes the internal accommodation.

Outside, another important benefit is the property's allocated parking space — a feature that's particularly useful in this location and one I'd certainly want on my list when comparing potential first homes.

The location works particularly well too.

Blunden Drive places you within convenient reach of everyday amenities, while Folkestone West railway stationprovides useful transport connections for commuters and those travelling further afield. Folkestone's wider town centre, shops, amenities and coastline are also within easy reach.

But for me, it's the opportunity this property represents that really stands out.

At £154,000 for a 70% share, this could provide a different route onto the property ladder for somebody who may otherwise have found themselves predominantly looking at apartments.

Here, you're getting a two-bedroom coach house, approximately 646 sq ft of accommodation, your own entrance, a large open-plan living space and allocated parking.

And if you're in the position to purchase outright, that's an option too.
