Roomy living, close to schools and fast rail links for family life.
Chain-free four-bedroom detached house, 1,332 sq ft
This four-bedroom detached house on Gouge Avenue offers roomy, flexible family living across 1,332 sq ft with no forward chain. A double-storey rear extension has created generous living and dining areas, including an 18ft dining space and a large lounge with patio doors onto a low-maintenance rear garden. The main bedroom includes an en-suite, and there is a convenient ground-floor WC. Off-street parking is provided on a front driveway.
Practical details are clear: freehold tenure, EPC rating D, Council Tax band D, mains gas central heating and double glazing. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal excellent — useful for home working and streaming. The house sits about 1.2 miles from Gravesend town centre with easy access to shops, buses and the high‑speed rail link to London St Pancras. A range of well-rated schools, including a top 10% grammar school, are within the local catchment.
Notable considerations: the property dates from the early 20th century and has solid brick walls with no known cavity insulation (assumed), which contributes to the EPC D rating — upgrading insulation and modernising some services may be required to improve energy efficiency and running costs. The plot is described as small, and the house is in a mixed suburban area with average crime and typical area deprivation levels. These facts make it important to inspect for redecoration or improvement needs and to factor potential retrofit costs into any purchase plans.
Overall, this detached home suits families wanting immediate living space and easy transport links, while offering scope to add value through energy-efficiency improvements and cosmetic updating. Chain-free sale simplifies the purchase process for buyers ready to move or invest in a long-term family home.
