The principal bedroom has an en-suite and there are three bathrooms in total, reducing morning congestion for busy households. A bay-fronted living room and an open-plan modern kitchen/dining area provide comfortable, sociable ground-floor space. Outside there is a long private driveway, detached single garage and a rear garden for children and pets.
The lower-ground conversion gives a private entrance and independent living area — a genuine selling point for buyers wanting ancillary accommodation or an income stream. The house sits within walking distance of Maidstone town centre and local stations, making it practical for commuters and families who need local amenities and schools nearby.
Practical considerations: the property has an EPC rating of D and is in a location with above-average recorded crime levels, which may affect insurance and security needs. The plot is described as small and the house may require updating in parts despite generally good presentation; buyers should budget for typical maintenance and any desired modernisation. Prospective purchasers should check broadband and mobile details on official sources and verify planning potential for loft or rear extensions with the local authority.
Overall this is a flexible, mid-sized family home with clear scope to suit growing households or investors seeking an annexe-ready property close to town. Its combination of bay-front character, annexe space and off-street parking will suit buyers prioritising space, convenience and adaptable accommodation.
