This two-double-bedroom end-of-terrace offers a straightforward, chain-free purchase ideal for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a project. The layout includes a large lounge/diner, compact kitchen, west-facing garden and a single garage en-bloc accessed from the rear. Built in the late 1970s with double glazing and gas central heating, it’s a practical suburban home with immediate occupation possible.
The property requires updating and modernisation throughout, presenting clear scope to add value by improving the kitchen, bathroom and finishes. The plot is modest and the house footprint is small (approx. 591 sq ft), so buyers should plan improvements that maximise space and storage rather than extensions. Council Tax band C is affordable, and fast broadband with reasonable transport links supports commuting to London.
Location is convenient for local shops, schools and bus routes, with Gravesend and Ebbsfleet stations within easy reach for regular rail services to London. There is a nearby woodland for outdoor leisure. Be aware the area records above-average crime levels and the neighbourhood faces some socio-economic challenges; sensible security and budget for renovations are recommended.
Overall this is a practical entry-level home or buy-to-let with a garage and garden, best suited to buyers prepared to invest time and money into refurbishment to unlock the property’s full potential.
