Havelock Road, Walmer, CT14

Price range 275k - 300k

Geek has wandered a little further along the coast for this one.

We’re in Walmer, Deal, on Havelock Road — an unmade road that somehow suits the house rather well. A little less polished, a little more tucked away, and all the better for it.

The house itself is a three-bedroom semi arranged over three floors, and there’s a surprising amount of space here.

You’ve got a separate lounge, then a much larger open-plan kitchen, dining and living space across the rear of the house, which opens straight out onto the garden.

And it’s a proper garden too. Good size, useful, and exactly the sort of outside space that makes this feel like a family house rather than just somewhere with three bedrooms squeezed into it.

Upstairs, the three bedrooms are all a decent size, and overall the house offers considerably more space than you might expect at this price point.

Now, a little honesty.

This is a home that’s being lived in. Properly lived in.

The current owner is busy, has a couple of small terrors running around, and the house isn’t pretending to be a show home.

Most buyers will probably want to come in and put their own stamp on it over time. But that’s rather the point.

The important bits are already here. Good proportions. Good garden. Plenty of space. And a very good location.

View it as you find it.

Look beyond the odd bit of family life and you’ve got the bones of a really good house.
