This three‑storey, four‑bed end of terrace is offered freehold at auction by order of LPA receivers — a clear opportunity for investors or a cash‑buyer renovator. The property includes a rear garden and off‑street parking, is on mains gas with boiler and radiators, and sits close to Gillingham mainline station and local bus links. Broadband speeds are listed as fast and mobile signal excellent, useful for tenants or home workers.
The sale is case‑specific: the sellers believe the property may be occupied but hold no tenancy documentation. Prospective purchasers must rely on their own enquiries — no internal inspection was undertaken for the particulars. Expect to commission surveys, verify occupancy, and factor in the auction contract fee and any additional completion charges.
There is clear scope to add value through refurbishment. The house dates from c.1900–1929 with solid brick walls (assumed no cavity insulation) and double glazing of unknown age — so upgrading insulation, electrics and finishes will likely be required. EPC is listed as D; a full energy/structural survey is recommended before bidding.
Be realistic about the local context: the area is described as very deprived with very high crime rates, which will affect rental demand, resale and mortgage options for some buyers. For experienced investors or local developers prepared to manage refurbishment and tenancy risk, this lot could deliver uplift; for most owner‑occupiers it will involve significant pre‑purchase due diligence.
