This extended Victorian terrace on Folkestone Road is arranged over three floors and suits a growing family seeking period charm with practical space. The ground floor offers a bright kitchen/breakfast room with French doors, a cosy bay-fronted living room, and a useful downstairs WC. Upstairs, two double bedrooms and a substantial four-piece family bathroom serve daily family life. The top floor provides a large third double bedroom with built-in storage and Velux windows — a flexible retreat for a master suite, teenager or home office.
The home is well presented throughout and retains classic features such as bay windows, high ceilings and an ornate fireplace while offering modern conveniences. Its location in Baffins places it close to green space at Baffins Pond and within the Admiral Lord Nelson School catchment, a notable benefit for families. The property is freehold, has no flood risk and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal.
Buyers should note the small rear plot and relatively average overall size — the house feels spacious internally but offers limited outdoor space. The wider area is mixed economically (described as blue-collar terraces) and the neighbourhood is classed as constrained renters; local services are plentiful but social indicators are mixed. Ofsted ratings nearby are generally good, though a couple of neighbouring schools are rated as requiring improvement.
This is a practical, characterful family home with flexible living across three floors and strong school links. It will particularly suit buyers who prioritise indoor living space, period features and proximity to local amenities, while those seeking a larger garden or more affluent streets may prefer to look elsewhere.
