A traditional two-bedroom mid-terrace offered chain-free and ready for a new owner to personalise. The house sits around 723 sq ft, with a classic bay-windowed frontage, modernised kitchen and gas central heating. Its standout asset is a long private rear garden — unusual for town terraces and useful for outdoor living or extension potential (subject to consents).
Practical benefits include double glazing installed after 2002, mains gas boiler and excellent mobile signal with fast broadband — helpful for commuting and home working. The property is just 0.3 miles from Gillingham station and 1.1 miles from Medway Maritime Hospital, making it well placed for transport links and local amenities.
Buyers should note the neighbourhood context and some maintenance needs. The exterior requires cosmetic updating (peeling paint, unkempt front), the walls are traditional solid brick likely without cavity insulation, and the area records high crime rates and very high deprivation — factors to consider for families and lenders. There is no driveway and parking may be limited on street.
This home will suit first-time purchasers or hands-on investors looking for an affordable entry on a popular commuter corridor. Viewing is recommended to judge layout and potential — the property is sold freehold with a low council tax band and no forward chain.
