Affordable two-bed near Canterbury centre — ideal for first-time buyers or investors..
Short walk to Canterbury city centre and amenities
Two double bedrooms, family bathroom, about 649 sq ft
Kitchen with integrated appliances and dining area
Enclosed low-maintenance rear garden and off-street parking
Freehold tenure; cheap council tax and mains gas heating
Double glazing; excellent mobile and fast broadband
Dated interior and requires cosmetic updating throughout
Located in a deprived area with a high local crime rate
Quietly tucked on Starle Close, this two-bedroom mid-terrace offers straightforward city living a short walk from Canterbury High Street. The ground floor has a living room and kitchen/diner with integrated appliances and French doors out to a low-maintenance, enclosed rear garden. Off-street parking to the front adds convenience in a city-centre setting.
At about 649 sq ft, the layout suits first-time buyers or young couples seeking a manageable, freehold home with reasonable running costs (cheap council tax). The property has double glazing and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators; broadband and mobile signal are both strong—useful for remote working or studying.
Buyers should note clear limitations: the area is classified as deprived with a high local crime rate, and the interior shows dated decor that will need updating to modern tastes. The plot is small and the home is compact, so families requiring substantial outdoor space may find it restrictive. No flood risk is recorded.
This is a pragmatic buy for a first-time owner wanting central access and low-maintenance outdoor space, or for an investor targeting student or professional lets close to universities and transport links. The guide price range reflects room for value-add through cosmetic refurbishment.
