Set on Front Brents with immediate quay-side outlook, this three-bedroom end-of-terrace period house offers a rare chance to secure a freehold cottage a short walk from Faversham town centre. The property benefits from a converted loft providing a generous third bedroom, a long reception room and a useful rear kitchen. Nearby green space and town amenities give it practical day-to-day appeal for families or rental investors.
The house requires cosmetic updating and some external maintenance — peeling paint and overgrown planting are evident — so buyers should expect refurbishment work to modernise interiors and exterior finishes. The layout and room sizes are comfortable for family living, and there is potential to increase value through targeted improvements or possible extension subject to planning.
Important auction and purchase terms apply: sale via the Modern Method of Auction, subject to a reserve price and buyer fees including a non-refundable Reservation Fee (4.5% of purchase price, minimum £7,080 inc VAT) and a Buyer Information Pack charge. Buyers needing mortgage finance should inspect with their lender prior to bidding and factor in these additional costs when calculating affordability.
Material drawbacks that affect suitability and insurance should be considered: the property sits in a high flood-risk area and is located within a very deprived local ward. External and internal refurbishment requirements are present. These factors may influence running costs, insurance premiums and mortgage availability, but the quay-side position and period character offer clear upside for buyers prepared to renovate.
