This detached three-bedroom home on Makin Drive sits on one of the larger plots on the Heron Fields development, offering space and flexibility for family life. Neutral, contemporary interiors include shutters and fitted air-conditioning units, a bright hallway, living room, kitchen/diner with integrated appliances, and an ensuite to the master bedroom. The layout suits family routines and working-from-home arrangements.
Outside, the generous rear garden has a patio, decked seating, artificial grass and a versatile garden room previously used for a home beauty business — ideal as a home office, studio, or leisure space. A tandem driveway and single garage provide off-street parking and storage; the garage could be converted to add living space, as has been done on similar plots. The property is freehold and offered chain-free.
Practical benefits include fast broadband, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and a couple of years remaining on the original NHBC warranty. The location is quiet and within walking distance of several primary and secondary schools, with good road links to the A249 and Sittingbourne station for commuters.
Buyers should note material local considerations: the area records above-average crime levels and ranks as relatively deprived. These factors, alongside limited remaining NHBC cover, are important for budgeting and insurance. Overall, the house is well-suited to families seeking a larger garden, flexible homeworking space and commuter accessibility, with scope to personalise and add value.
