Auction sale with renovation potential, gardens and garage — ideal for first-time buyers..
Two bedrooms in a mid-terrace freehold
A two-bedroom mid-terrace freehold in Sittingbourne offering clear potential to add value. The ground-floor lounge/diner is a generous 21'1 x 11'8, and both front and rear gardens plus an en‑bloc garage provide outdoor space and storage — uncommon at this price level. Built in the late 1960s/early 1970s, the house is solid but in need of modernisation throughout, giving buyers scope to update the kitchen, bathroom and internal finishes to current tastes.
This property is offered via the Modern Method of Auction. Prospective buyers must allow for a non-refundable Reservation Fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600 including VAT), an auction pack fee (£349), and the auction process timings (completion within 56 days of the draft contract). The sale is subject to an undisclosed reserve price and the starting bid may change; full due diligence is essential before bidding.
Practical positives include mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing (installation date unknown), and affordable council tax. Notable drawbacks: the home requires renovation, cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, room count and square footage are modest (approx. 525 sq ft), and buyer fees and auction terms will add to purchase costs. Good local schools and fast broadband make this suitable for first-time buyers prepared to renovate or investors seeking a refurbishment project.
