This Grade II listed mid-terrace offers spacious two-bedroom accommodation across three floors, arranged for comfortable retirement living or downsizing. The house is immaculately presented with an open-plan lounge/kitchen-diner, large double bedrooms and a low-maintenance private rear garden. A cellar provides useful extra storage or hobby space.
Important practical points are clear: the property is solid-brick and pre-1900, with secondary glazing but no built-in wall insulation, so upgrading thermal performance may be needed. Listed status means alterations can be restricted and may add cost or delay to any renovation. The plot is small and the area records very high local crime levels; buyers should factor security and maintenance into plans.
This home is being offered chain-free and is suitable for retirement living. For buyers aged 60+, a Home for Life Lifetime Lease is available as an alternative purchase route — illustrative Lifetime Lease guide price £218,500 (market value £330,000); actual Lifetime Lease price depends on age and circumstances. All buyers should verify tenure, planning and listed-building requirements before purchase.
Located within walking distance of Maidstone town centre, the property benefits from excellent transport links, fast broadband and nearby amenities. Nearby schools and local services make the location convenient, while the terrace’s original features provide character for those who appreciate period homes.
