Summary - 55 EAST STREET CHATHAM ME4 5NJ
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Affordable starter home near Chatham station, ready to occupy.
Two double bedrooms, comfortable living space
This Victorian mid-terrace offers a practical, ready-to-move-in home for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The property provides two double bedrooms, a comfortable living room with period fireplace, and well-presented decor throughout, so no immediate cosmetic work is required. At around 908 sq ft, the layout feels compact but efficiently used across two storeys.
Positioned within a mile of Chatham station, the house suits commuters who need quick rail links to London and surrounding towns. On-street parking and a low-maintenance rear garden add everyday convenience; local schools and shops are within easy reach in a mixed urban neighbourhood.
Buyers should note the location sits in a high-crime, very deprived area and the property has solid brick walls with assumed no cavity insulation — so heating costs and future insulation work should be considered. The plot is small and frontage opens directly onto the pavement, limiting privacy and outdoor space. Freehold tenure and double glazing already installed are practical advantages for longer-term ownership.
Overall this property offers immediate occupation with scope to add value through targeted upgrades (insulation, energy efficiency, or modernisation). It will particularly appeal to first-time buyers seeking an affordable starter home and investors looking for a straightforward rental proposition in a well-connected town.
