A compact one-bedroom basement flat set in a Victorian conversion on St Mary’s Road, recently renovated and ready to move into. The flat benefits from a bright living room with a bay window, a modern kitchen and bathroom, a generous double bedroom and a private two-level rear garden for outdoor space.
Practical transport links are a major plus: Strood station is about a five-minute walk with direct services to London (around 36 minutes), and the M2 is nearby for drivers. On-street permit parking is available and local shops, cafés and amenities are within easy reach.
There are material points to note. The flat sits in a basement level with relatively low ceilings and evidence of Victorian basement construction — buyers should check for potential damp and maintenance issues. The lease has about 83 years remaining, which will require action to extend soon to protect long-term value. The sale is by online auction and carries a non-refundable buyer’s premium and additional fees; read the legal pack carefully before bidding.
This property suits a first-time buyer or investor looking for a low-entry, commuter-friendly home with period character and outdoor space. Factor in lease renewal costs, auction fees and potential basement maintenance when assessing overall affordability and long-term plans.
