This substantial six-bedroom end-terrace offers flexible living across four floors close to Gillingham Station. With period character, high ceilings and generous room sizes, the house suits growing families seeking space or investors targeting HMO conversion. The property is chain free and sold freehold, giving straightforward possession for buyers.
The ground floor provides a large kitchen-diner, separate lounge and downstairs WC, while three floors above include a master with en suite, two further doubles and two top-floor bedrooms with fitted storage. The basement contains two full-height rooms with windows and a separate rear entrance — useful for home offices, ancillary accommodation or rental income. Double glazing and gas central heating are already fitted, and the overall 1,748 sq ft gives room to adapt.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the property sits in a very deprived area with very high local crime rates, which will affect some purchasers’ preferences and rental yields. The building is solid-brick and likely uninsulated in the walls, so improving thermal performance may be required. The rear outdoor space is a small courtyard rather than a full garden. Overall, this is a versatile period home with clear upside for those willing to invest in upgrading and management.
