Low‑maintenance paved rear garden approx. 25' deep

This mid‑terraced Victorian townhouse on Stanley Road offers flexible space across lower ground, ground and first floors — four bedrooms and four bathrooms within about 1,097 sq ft. The large lower‑ground lounge/diner and good bedroom sizes make it suitable for family living or conversion to an HMO (subject to consent).
The property is chain‑free and freehold, with gas central heating, double glazing and a low‑maintenance paved rear garden of roughly 25' depth. Its central Gillingham location places universities, colleges, the train station and town centre within easy reach, supporting rental demand from students and young professionals.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the area records very high crime and higher deprivation indices, and the house sits on a small plot with on‑street parking (permit required). The EPC is rated D and the solid brick walls likely lack cavity insulation — modest refurbishment and insulation works would improve comfort and running costs.
For investors the layout and local rental market present clear upside through HMO conversion or targeted refurbishment. For families, the sizeable reception room and four bedrooms provide everyday practicality, but purchasers sensitive to neighbourhood safety or seeking off‑street parking should weigh these factors before viewing.
