Description
Cable Cottage presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a stylish, fully furnished one-bedroom aparthotel unit in the heart of Whitstable’s thriving coastal market. Finished to a high specification throughout, the property is an excellent investment, with the property appealing to both weekend visitors and longer-stay guests drawn to the town’s vibrant seaside lifestyle.
The accommodation is accessed through its own private entrance and thoughtfully arranged, offering a contemporary open-plan bedroom/living area designed for comfort and functionality. The property is fitted with modern amenities such as a TV, refrigerator, and electric kettle, creating a high-quality, turnkey offering. The double bedroom is well-proportioned, complemented by Juliet balcony, alongside a modern shower room finished with premium fixtures and fittings
Throughout, the property benefits from a clean, contemporary aesthetic, with quality materials and a strong attention to detail, ensuring durability and ongoing appeal within the competitive short-let market.
Whitstable is one of Kent’s most sought-after coastal towns, renowned for its charming seaside character, thriving hospitality scene, and strong year-round visitor demand. Situated on the north Kent coast, just 60 miles from London, the town blends traditional coastal appeal with a vibrant, contemporary lifestyle.
Famous for its oysters and working harbour, Whitstable attracts a steady stream of tourists and weekend visitors, particularly from London, thanks to excellent rail connections with high-speed services from London St Pancras in under 90 minutes. The town’s popularity has grown significantly in recent years, driven by its independent cafes, acclaimed seafood restaurants, boutique shops, and creative community.
Whitstable’s picturesque seafront, colourful beach huts, and bustling harbour create a strong holiday atmosphere, while its proximity to the historic city of Canterbury (approx. 7 miles) further enhances its appeal. The area benefits from consistent demand for short-stay accommodation throughout the year, supported by tourism, events, and its reputation as a premium coastal escape.
With limited supply of quality visitor accommodation and ongoing demand from both domestic and international travellers, Whitstable represents an attractive and resilient location for hospitality and aparthotel investment.
All trade fixtures and fittings to be included.
External DetailsA particular advantage is the inclusion of undercroft parking with an EV charging point, a highly desirable feature in central Whitstable, enhancing both guest convenience and long-term rental demand.
The OpportunityAn excellent opportunity to acquire a modern, high-spec holiday let investment in the heart of Whitstable, delivering a circa 11.06% gross yield. This one-bedroom aparthotel unit offers a turnkey, relatively hands-off investment, ideal for investors seeking strong returns in a proven coastal short-let market.
The property is available to purchase individually or alongside three additional units, with the option to secure a discounted price when acquired as part of a portfolio, enhancing overall value and income potential.
Offered chain-free, and finished to a contemporary standard throughout, this is a rare chance to invest in a well-located, income-producing asset with immediate trading capability.
Cable Cottage offers an attractive, income-generating opportunity with a strong projected gross annual income of £35,949.44, reflecting the property’s appeal within Whitstable’s thriving short-let market.
Based on the asking price of £325,000, the property delivers a compelling gross yield of approximately 11.06%, positioning it as a highly attractive option for investors seeking strong returns in a well-established coastal destination.
