Summary - 55 WILLIAM STREET HERNE BAY CT6 5NR
5 bed 3 bath Town House
Seafront strolls, long secluded garden and off-street parking near shops.
Five bedrooms plus self-contained lower-ground flat with separate shower room
A striking late-Georgian/ Victorian terrace arranged over four floors, this five-bedroom town house sits within easy walking distance of Herne Bay’s seafront, promenade and mainline rail links to London. Period features and high ceilings give generous, characterful rooms throughout, while a long secluded garden and off-street parking are rare central perks.
The lower-ground floor is a self-contained flat with its own kitchen, shower room and reception — currently operated successfully as short‑stay accommodation, providing immediate rental income or flexible space for guests or extended family. The main living areas include a bay-fronted sitting room, dining room, utility area and a fitted kitchen up one level, with four further bedrooms and an en-suite to the principal bedroom above.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, no flood risk, decent plot size and fast broadband with excellent mobile reception. Buyers should note the property sits in an area of higher crime and marked socio-economic deprivation; this may affect long-term capital growth and some buyers’ sense of security. The house is a sizeable, average-condition period home — attractive for families wanting space and character, or investors seeking an income-producing central seaside property.
Viewings suit purchasers who value period character and flexible accommodation and who are comfortable with the realities of the surrounding neighbourhood. There is scope to modernise or reconfigure internal spaces to enhance value, while retaining the strong rental or self‑contained income potential from the lower-ground unit.
