This two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace offers an accessible entry point for first-time buyers seeking period character and outdoor space. The property is freehold, chain-free and includes a long rear garden of approximately 60ft, a usable cellar and loft access — useful for storage or modest future extensions.
Internally the layout provides a front lounge, open dining area, fitted kitchen and a bathroom on the first floor off the rear bedroom. The house benefits from gas-fired central heating and double glazing throughout, though the glazing install date is unknown. Solid brick walls are original and likely uninsulated, so buyers should budget for potential thermal upgrades or insulation works.
Location is a clear strength: within walking distance of Gillingham town centre and the high-speed rail link to London, plus nearby parks and a range of schools rated Good. Parking is on-street with a residents’ permit available for £35 per year. Broadband and mobile signal are strong.
Buyers should note material downsides: the wider area is very deprived with higher-than-average crime levels, and some refurbishment may be required to modernise finishes. The property offers good renovation and investment potential for those prepared to improve energy performance and interior décor.
