This chain-free Edwardian property offers over 2,000 sqft of flexible living across four floors — ideal for a growing family or buyers needing space. The house is presented to a high standard internally, with five double bedrooms, a modern farmhouse-style kitchen with island, and a lower-ground room that works well as a guest bedroom or home office. Off-street parking and a large rear garden add practical day-to-day convenience in a busy town location.
Transport and local amenities are strong selling points: Gillingham railway station and local bus routes are within easy walking distance, and supermarkets and eateries are close by. Several primary schools rated Good are nearby, making the property suitable for families with younger children. The property is Freehold and offered chain-free, simplifying purchase logistics.
Buyers should note a few material considerations. The house sits in an area with higher crime and very high deprivation relative to national averages; that may affect resale and feel of the neighbourhood. The property has an EPC rating of D and, as a pre-1930 solid-brick house, the walls are assumed uninsulated — insulating and energy improvements may be needed to cut running costs. Council Tax is in Band E (above average).
Overall this is a spacious, characterful home with substantial upside for those who value location and room sizes. It suits families seeking roomy accommodation close to transport, or investors looking for a large, chain-free period house where targeted improvements (insulation, efficiency works) could add long-term value.
