Offered with a guide price of £160,000–£180,000 and sold chain free, this two-bedroom Victorian terraced house presents a straightforward route onto the property ladder. The ground floor has separate lounge and dining rooms; the lounge’s large bay window brings light and period character. A small rear lawn offers private outdoor space for children or pets.
The house needs renovation and updating, so it suits a buyer ready to improve fixtures, finishes and possibly services to add value. The layout is traditional and practical, with two good-sized first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom. Broadband is fast and mobile signal is excellent — useful for remote working or streaming.
Location is convenient for everyday needs: local shops, a major supermarket, buses and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are close by, including two grammar schools ranked highly. Council tax is low, which helps running costs.
Be clear about the area context: this part of Dover is classed as very deprived with high local crime figures, so buyers should factor neighbourhood safety and long-term resale considerations into their plans. The plot is small and the property will require hands-on refurbishment rather than a simple cosmetic refresh, but the combination of price, location and chain-free status makes it a realistic project for first-time buyers or investors seeking rental potential.
