This two-bedroom semi-detached home in Reculver Walk is a project property with clear scope for improvement. Built in the 1970s, the house offers a practical layout: porch to hallway, a bright lounge/diner with sliding doors to the rear garden, separate kitchen (also garden-facing), two double bedrooms, a shower room and a separate WC. The plot is small and the rear garden is mainly paved with mature shrubs, low-maintenance but limited for expansion.
Key positives include freehold tenure, off-street parking, good digital connectivity (excellent mobile signal, fast broadband) and no flood risk. Mote Park and local green space are nearby, and the town centre with three main stations (Maidstone East, West and Barracks) is about three miles away, providing reasonable links into London. Local primary and secondary schools are rated Good by Ofsted.
The property is sold as needing modernisation: the kitchen and internal finishes are dated and worn, and the home will require renovation throughout to reach contemporary standards. The area is classified as an outer-city, higher-deprivation locality, which may affect resale speed and certain buyer preferences. Council tax is described as affordable and crime levels are low, which supports family and first‑time buyer appeal.
This home suits a buyer seeking a value-for-money renovation opportunity or an investor prepared to upgrade for rental or resale. The guide price reflects the work required — the space, layout and location give straightforward potential for improvement and a comfortable finished home.
