Set on a quiet street just a short walk from Canterbury city centre, this Victorian mid-terrace offers characterful living with clear potential. The bay-fronted living room, adjoining dining space and kitchen provide a practical ground-floor layout, while a loft room adds flexible extra space for an office or occasional guest use. The mature rear garden is a good size for the area and offers a private outdoor room for dining and low-maintenance planting.
Offered freehold and with no forward chain, the house is well suited to first-time buyers, couples and investors seeking a central Canterbury location close to shops, universities and transport links. The property benefits from mains gas central heating, double glazing and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity. Nearby schools and transport (Canterbury West high‑speed to London) add to the location appeal.
The home is an older solid-brick build with original period features but will need updating in places. There is no known cavity insulation in the walls and some internal areas show typical wear consistent with an early‑20th‑century terrace; buyers should expect redecoration and potential energy-efficiency improvements. On-street parking is available but there is no private driveway. The small plot and narrow frontage limit extension options without planning consent.
Overall this is a well-located, characterful terrace that rewards buyers prepared to invest modestly to modernise and improve energy performance. For those seeking immediate occupancy, the property is habitable as-is; for others it represents a sensible renovation project in a sought-after Canterbury neighbourhood.
