Two-bed semi with conservatory, garage and extension potential close to Strood station.
16' conservatory overlooking secluded mature rear garden
A practical two-bedroom semi-detached house offering straightforward starter-home accommodation with genuine scope to add value. The ground floor includes a 16' conservatory overlooking a secluded mature garden, plus a utility room/downstairs cloakroom and an integral garage with driveway space for two cars — rare practical parking for this area.
The property sits within easy reach of Strood and Rochester town centres and is under a mile from the mainline station (regular services to London under 40 minutes). Local schools include highly regarded primary and secondary options, making the location suitable for first-time buyers planning a family.
The house was built in the 1950s–60s and, while structurally standard (filled cavity walls, double glazing, mains gas boiler and radiators), it requires updating throughout — kitchens and bathrooms are dated and some internal finishes show wear. There is clear potential to extend the home or garage, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission, which could increase living space and resale value.
Be upfront: the wider neighbourhood records higher-than-average crime and very deprived area indicators, which affects local amenity perception and may influence mortgage or insurance considerations. Prospective buyers should verify all measurements, planning possibilities and local factors, and budget for modernization works to unlock the property’s potential.
