This chain-free, three-bedroom Victorian terrace in Gillingham offers a straightforward investment or DIY family project. The house is freehold, approximately 873 sq ft, with double glazing installed after 2002 and mains gas heating by boiler and radiators — practical basics already in place.
The layout includes two reception rooms, a kitchen and a ground-floor bathroom, plus two double bedrooms and a third single bedroom accessed through the main bedroom. A private rear garden and a decent plot size create scope for landscaping or possible rear extension (subject to planning). Broadband and mobile signals are strong, supporting modern rental or home-working needs.
A full modernisation is required throughout: cosmetic and structural repairs, flooring and wall repairs, and upgrading of fixtures and finishes. The property sits in an area with high crime levels and very high deprivation, which will affect rental values and resale comparables; pricing reflects that risk. Buyers should budget for a comprehensive refurbishment rather than light cosmetic work.
Well-suited to an investor seeking a value-entry purchase or a tradesperson wanting a hands-on renovation, the house promises good upside once refurbished. Nearby amenities, primary schools with Good Ofsted ratings and easy transport links help retention for tenants or family occupants.
