We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
An outstanding opportunity to acquire a substantial freehold residential block comprising 18 self-contained apartments, situated in one of Margate’s most desirable and well-connected residential locations.
Positioned on the sought-after Athelstan Road, this impressive period building offers an exceptional investment opportunity, benefitting from strong rental demand, an enviable coastal setting and excellent transport links.
Whether you’re an experienced investor looking to expand your portfolio or seeking a long-term asset with significant income potential, this is a rare opportunity not to be missed.
The development consists of 18 individual apartments, each offering well-proportioned accommodation with an abundance of natural light, while retaining much of the character expected from a handsome period building.
The location is one of the property’s strongest attributes.
Athelstan Road is perfectly positioned just moments from Margate’s award-winning coastline, with Margate Main Sands, the iconic Dreamland amusement park and the vibrant Old Town all within easy reach.
Residents can enjoy an excellent selection of independent cafés, restaurants, bars, galleries and boutique shops that have transformed Margate into one of Kent’s most desirable seaside destinations.
The development also benefits from excellent access to a range of highly regarded primary and secondary schools, making the apartments attractive to a broad range of tenants, including professionals, couples and young families.
Margate railway station is approximately one mile away and provides regular High-Speed services to London St Pancras in around 90 minutes, alongside direct routes to London Victoria, offering an excellent solution for commuters.
As demand for quality rental accommodation across Thanet continues to remain strong, opportunities to acquire a complete residential block of this size are increasingly rare.
