Summary - 38 INSTITUTE ROAD CHATHAM ME4 4PE
3 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Well-located starter or investment near station and schools.
Three bedrooms over three floors with separate rooms for privacy
A three-bedroom Victorian end-of-terrace set over three floors, this home offers separate bedrooms and a practical layout for family life or rental income. The house is presented as move-in ready internally, with double glazing and gas central heating via boiler and radiators. A low-maintenance rear garden and cellar add usable outside space and storage; the plot is small but easy to manage.
Location is a strong selling point: walkable to the train station, local shops and several well-rated schools including Fort Pitt Grammar and Chatham Grammar. That accessibility suits a first-time buyer seeking convenience or an investor targeting established renting families in an urban cultural-mix area.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly. The property sits in a very high crime area and a very deprived ward, which may affect resale and rental desirability. Exterior maintenance and roof issues have been flagged in the description, and the solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated — further works could be needed to improve energy efficiency. Council tax is described as affordable and tenure is freehold.
Overall this house is a practical, characterful opportunity: ready to occupy now but with clear scope for targeted improvements to the exterior, insulation and long-term security measures. Investors will appreciate the nearby rental market; first-time buyers gain a compact, well-located starter home with good local schools.
