A Victorian terraced cottage on the edge of Boughton Monchelsea, offered chain-free for buyers prepared to carry out a full renovation. The property dates to circa 1879 and retains period character such as a stone façade and feature fireplace, while the accommodation includes a sitting room, kitchen/dining room, ground-floor shower room and two first-floor bedrooms with a dressing area.
Outside there is a small courtyard leading to a private detached garden with greenhouse and storage outbuilding — a rare benefit for a terraced cottage and providing scope to create a secluded outdoor living space. The plot is decent and the house sits within The Quarries conservation area, an attractive village-edge setting with low crime and good local schools.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the house requires complete renovation throughout (cosmetic and likely systems work), lending from high-street lenders may be limited, and the property sits in a medium flood-risk zone. Broadband is slow and room sizes are small to medium, so expect modernisation costs and potential planning constraints because of the conservation area.
This house suits someone seeking a sympathetic restoration project — a first-time buyer with renovation skills, or a buyer wanting to add value in a desirable rural-white-collar location. The freehold, no onward chain sale and affordable council tax help reduce immediate running costs while work is planned and executed.
