This mid-terrace Victorian property on Mead Road is offered chain-free and with significant scope for improvement. The house has three bedrooms, two reception rooms and a downstairs bathroom — a straightforward layout for a first purchase or rental conversion.
The home requires full modernisation throughout: dated mid-20th-century kitchen, likely no wall insulation, and general decorative and systems updating. Its solid-brick construction gives good bones, but expect costs for heating efficiency, cosmetic works, and possible electrical or plumbing upgrades.
Location is a key advantage: shops, schools and local amenities are close by, and Folkestone Central HS1 station is within walking distance for fast links to London. The property is freehold, modest in size and comes with a small courtyard-style garden — suitable for low-maintenance outside space.
Be realistic about the local area: this part of Folkestone is identified as deprived with above-average crime rates, and nearby streets are predominantly blue-collar terraces. For investors or first-time buyers on a budget, the house represents priced entry with renovation upside, but factor in refurbishment costs and neighbourhood considerations before committing.
