Set on Columbine Road and backing onto Rede Common, this three-bedroom semi-detached home combines practical family living with convenient commuter links. The property offers a generous kitchen, a bright lounge, off-street parking and a mature rear garden — useful for children, pets or growing beds. Located within easy reach of Strood Academy and several well-rated primary schools, it suits families seeking local schooling and green space.
Built around the 1930s–1940s, the house retains period character in its brick façade and bay window but will benefit from targeted modernisation to kitchens, bathrooms and cosmetic finishes. The home is gas‑heated with radiator central heating and double glazing (installation date unknown), so buyers should be aware of potential upgrade timelines and costs.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, an average overall size (approximately 872 sq ft), a decent plot and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. Transport links to the A2/M2 are close by, making this a pragmatic choice for commuters. Council tax is described as affordable and local crime levels are low, adding to everyday peace of mind.
This property appeals to families and buyers looking for a comfortable, well-located house with scope to personalise. It offers good fundamentals — parking, garden, schools and transport — while presenting clear opportunities for improvement to increase comfort and long‑term value.
