This Victorian mid-terrace offers a traditional layout across two storeys with original period features and bay windows that give the front rooms character and good natural light. The entrance hall leads to a spacious lounge/dining area and a generous rear kitchen, creating practical family living space on the ground floor. Two double bedrooms, a single bedroom and a family bathroom are arranged upstairs, matching the needs of a small family or first-time buyers seeking extra room.
The house is presented in tidy, basic condition and benefits from double glazing, mains gas central heating, freehold tenure and fast broadband — useful practical positives for everyday living. The solid brick walls (as built) suggest original construction; there is likely little or no cavity insulation, so buyers should factor potential insulation and energy-efficiency improvements into running-cost plans.
Located in CT9 within walking distance of local shops, bus routes, Dane Park, Margate Old Town, beaches and high-speed rail links, the property has genuine location appeal. Council tax is described as cheap, and there is no recorded flood risk. The wider area is classified as deprived with blue-collar terraces, so buyers should weigh resale and investment prospects against local socio-economic indicators.
The home presents a ready-to-live-in base with scope to personalise and modernise the kitchen, bathrooms and decor. For buyers wanting character and proximity to Margate’s amenities, this property offers a solid platform — but expect upgrade work to improve insulation, styling and long-term energy costs.
