This two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace in Gillingham offers a compact, well-located home ideal for first-time buyers or a small family. The property is chain free and benefits from a recently fitted contemporary kitchen, gas central heating and double glazing, giving ready-to-live-in comfort while retaining characterful proportions.
The house is small overall (approximately 549 sq ft) with practical room sizes and a cellar that could provide useful storage or conversion potential subject to checks. The rear garden and front garden offer outdoor space uncommon at this price point, and the short walk to the mainline station and Gillingham High Street makes commuting and local amenities extremely convenient.
Buyers should note the area’s high crime levels and very deprived local indicators, which may affect insurance costs and long‑term resale. The property’s solid brick walls are likely uninsulated as built; further insulation or energy upgrades would improve comfort and running costs. Overall this is a straightforward, affordable starter home with scope to add value through careful updating.
