Two bedrooms in a Victorian cottage, approx. 592 sq ft
Tucked a five-minute walk from Chilham’s medieval square, this two-bedroom Victorian cottage blends period charm with practical potential. The cosy sitting/dining room and compact kitchen provide a comfortable daily layout while the small garden offers an outdoor retreat in a picturesque village setting.
The property requires renovation and modernisation, giving a new owner scope to reconfigure internal space and update services. There is potential for a rear extension subject to planning permission; any buyer should factor in permission timescales and build costs. Low ceilings and a small overall footprint (approximately 592 sq ft) mean the cottage suits those who value character over generous room sizes.
Transport links are a strength: Chilham station, quick road access to the M2, Canterbury (6 miles) and Ashford (10 miles) make commuting realistic. The location will appeal to first-time buyers and investors seeking rental demand, as well as buyers looking for a manageable renovation in a highly desirable village setting.
Practical points are clear: the property is freehold and chain-free, with no flood risk and very low local crime. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent. Buyers should budget for updating and possible structural works when assessing value and timescales.
