Chain-free small terrace with parking and retirement purchase option for over 60s.
Home for Life example price £159,000 for buyers aged 60+
This compact Victorian mid-terrace offers a practical, low-maintenance base for someone looking to downsize within walking distance of Gillingham High Street and the mainline station. The property is chain free and benefits from rare off-road parking for the area plus a small rear courtyard. A useful cellar room and loft conversion add flexibility for storage or occasional guests.
The property is being marketed with a Homewise Home for Life example price of £159,000 for buyers aged 60+ (full market value £240,000). The Lifetime Lease option typically provides a significant saving versus full purchase but the exact price depends on age and individual circumstances — use the Homewise calculator or request a personalised quote to confirm eligibility and cost.
Internally the kitchen appears modern and the house has double glazing, but the building shows signs of age and will suit someone prepared to carry out updating. There is no central heating system evident (electric heaters assumed), and the solid brick walls likely lack modern insulation. The neighbourhood has high crime and significant deprivation indicators, so buyers should weigh location factors carefully.
This home is best for an older buyer seeking affordability and convenient transport links who is comfortable with modest space and some renovation or ongoing maintenance.
