Offered via the Modern Method of Auction, this one-bedroom Victorian terraced house is a clear project for an investor or DIY buyer. The property is freehold, with a cellar, rear garden and brick-built external storage — practical assets for rental conversion or a value-led refurbishment. The layout is compact (approximately 570 sq ft) and built before 1900, giving period character but also some dated fabric.
The house requires renovation throughout: visible damp/mould, neglected floorboards and likely upgrades to insulation and services. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators in place, and double glazing is fitted though install date is unknown. Buyers should budget for repairs and modernisation; the property is described as needing renovation and may require professional surveys before mortgage lending.
Important auction terms apply: sale by Modern Method of Auction with a Reservation Fee payable on completion (4.5% of purchase price, minimum £7,080 inc VAT) and a Buyer Information Pack fee. Interested bidders must inspect carefully and understand auction timelines and fees before bidding. This is a short-reserve, time-sensitive purchase ideal for investors seeking a low-entry purchase price and scope to add value.
Located in Sittingbourne / Teynham fringe, the property sits within reach of local amenities, schools and good transport links into London via the M2 and rail connections. The area is described as industrious with above-average local crime statistics; consider this when planning lettings, security measures or tenant profiles. Council tax band is inexpensive, and the plot is relatively large for the type — a useful outdoor selling or tenant benefit after refurbishment.
