Summary - 133 WINCHEAP CANTERBURY CT1 3SE
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Chain-free Victorian terrace with garden and strong rental income potential.
Two double bedrooms and first-floor bathroom
This Victorian mid-terrace in Wincheap offers a straightforward entry into Canterbury living for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The house has been newly decorated and is in good order throughout, with two double bedrooms, two reception rooms and an extended kitchen/breakfast room with fitted oven and hob. The property is chain-free and sold freehold, ready for immediate occupation or letting.
The home combines period character — bay sash window, exposed brick fireplace and a new log burner — with practical modern comforts such as double glazing, mains gas central heating and fast broadband. A private rear garden extends approximately 40–60 ft, providing low-maintenance outdoor space rare for city-centre terraces. Canterbury city centre and both train stations are within easy walking distance, useful for commuters and city amenities.
As an investment the property currently achieves £1,300 pcm (circa £15,600 pa), a gross yield around 7% at the asking price. Running costs are likely modest: council tax is described as cheap and there is no flood risk. Local amenities and several well-regarded schools are close by, widening tenant appeal to professionals and families.
Notable drawbacks are factual: the area records higher crime and is classified as very deprived, which may affect resale or tenant mix. The house’s solid brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so further insulation work could improve energy efficiency. Plot size is small and street parking/amenity constraints typical of terraces should be expected.
