Summary - LANE END LYDFORDS LANE GILLINGHAM SP8 4NJ
6 bed 2 bath Detached
Large plot in peaceful Gillingham — huge scope for renovation and extension.
Six bedrooms across two floors, spacious family accommodation
Set on a plot of over half an acre in a peaceful part of Gillingham, this six-bedroom detached chalet bungalow offers rare space and scope. The property provides generous living areas across two floors, a double garage and broad driveway — ideal for a large family or buyers seeking extension potential.
The house requires comprehensive modernisation throughout: fixtures, finishes and services will need updating, and visible subsidence cracks indicate structural investigation and likely repairs are required. Internally, dormer layouts create useful extra space but include standard-to-low ceiling heights on the upper floor. The large garden is presently overgrown with a dormant pond and will need landscaping to restore its full potential.
Practical positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, very low local crime and convenient access to Gillingham’s amenities and rail links. Council Tax sits above average and the property is sold freehold. For buyers prepared to invest, the scale of the plot and accommodation offers strong potential to create a contemporary family home tailored to modern needs.
This is a project property: realistic purchasers are those looking for substantial renovation or redevelopment opportunities in a very affluent, well-connected area of North Dorset.
