Affordable central starter home close to universities and transport links.
Two double bedrooms across two storeys
Set on Sturry Road within easy reach of Canterbury city centre and local universities, this two-bedroom mid-terrace offers affordable entry into a central location. The house is freehold and arranged over two floors with a living room, separate dining room, fitted kitchen and a modern bathroom. Two double bedrooms sit on the first floor. Outside there is a small rear garden with a patio ideal for low-maintenance outdoor use.
At 744 sq ft the footprint is compact but practical; double glazing and gas central heating provide everyday comfort. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, which supports home working and student tenants. The property’s position close to shops, public transport and Canterbury West station adds real convenience for commuters and students.
Buyers should note material negatives: the neighbourhood records very high crime levels and the wider area is classed as deprived. The house has a small plot with no off-street parking and the wall construction is likely solid brick with no cavity insulation (insulation upgrade may be needed). Cosmetic updating and modest reconfiguration would improve living comfort and capital value.
Priced at £200,000, this property suits first-time buyers seeking a centrally located starter home or investors targeting short-term lets or long-term rental. It offers clear potential for uplift through straightforward modernisation, but buyers must factor in neighbourhood and energy-efficiency considerations.
