Chain free three-bedroom 1930s semi with period Tudor-style features
This recently restored 1930s semi-detached house offers comfortable, characterful living with practical modern upgrades. Chain-free and presented with certificates for heating, electrical and building works, it’s well suited to someone seeking a move-within ease and low immediate maintenance. The property includes a private driveway, detached garage and a secluded rear garden — conveniences that are increasingly rare near the town centre.
Internally the home retains period charm — leaded front windows, a Tudor-style bay and timber features — combined with practical improvements: a new gas boiler with a five-year guarantee, upgraded radiators and a new consumer unit with updated ring mains. The layout of three bedrooms and a modest bathroom upstairs, plus a bright sun room, suits downsizers who still want spare rooms for guests or hobbies. There is potential to extend to the side or rear, subject to planning permission, for those wanting more living space.
Buyers should note material local considerations: this part of Chatham records higher crime and area deprivation levels, and the property sits in an older solid-brick shell that likely lacks cavity insulation. Broadband retail speeds currently report as slow, though full-fibre is available for installation. The house is closest to strong commuter links — Chatham station within walking distance offers fast connections to London — making it practical for occasional travel. Overall, the home balances period character with recent mechanical upgrades but requires buyers to accept local area challenges and some thermal limitations due to construction era.
