Summary - 39A MORTIMER STREET HERNE BAY CT6 5PJ
2 bed 1 bath Cottage
Chain-free two-bedroom cottage near the seafront with parking and modern finishes..
Chain-free and newly renovated throughout
Private off-street parking — rare in central location
Underfloor heating downstairs; gas radiators upstairs
Short stroll to seafront, shops, cafes and transport links
High flood risk for the property and surrounding area
Very high local crime and significant area deprivation
Small plot with courtyard rather than large garden
EPC D (64); solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation
Comfortable, newly renovated two-bedroom cottage in central Herne Bay, a short walk from the seafront and local amenities. The open-plan ground floor benefits from underfloor heating and bifold doors that connect living space to a low-maintenance courtyard — an easy, lock-up-and-leave home for first-time buyers or couples.
Practical features include a private off-street parking space, gas central heating upstairs, double glazing, and a modern shower room. The property is chain-free and presented ready to move into, reducing the time and cost usually associated with a resale.
Buyers should note clear material concerns: the property sits in a high flood-risk area and the local area records very high crime and significant deprivation. The cottage is small (around 621 sq ft) with a compact courtyard rather than a garden and sits on a small plot. EPC is D (64). The building has solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation, which may limit thermal performance improvements without retrofit work.
This is a straightforward purchase for those prioritising location and convenience over outdoor space or long-term energy efficiency projects. The combination of central seaside living, off-street parking and modern interiors makes it a practical starter home or a manageable second home near the coast.
