A marvellous chance to purchase a two double bedroom, detached bungalow that is in need of complete refurbishment, presented to the market with the bonus of no onward chain and enjoying good sized outdoor space. The property is located in a quiet cul de sac of other similar properties and within a short level walk to the town centre and railway station as well as close to some fabulous country and riverside walks. Gillingham offers an excellent range of independent shops and chain stores, doctor and dentist surgeries, schooling for all ages and a variety of entertainment venues.

We believe that the bungalow was built in the 1950s and still retains the original tiled open fireplace plus some picture rails and benefits from electric heating and double glazing. The property is a unique opportunity for those seeking a restoration project in one of the most sought-after locations, in Gillingham. It offers endless possibilities to create a bespoke living space tailored to your tastes, making your dream home or to renovate and sell on.

Outside, the generously proportioned grounds also allow for you own landscaping plans, and once done will provide a quiet retreat and a wonderful space to relax and potter.

This property has to be viewed to really recognise the potential that the next owner could uncover and an early viewing is strongly urged to avoid missing out on becoming the next owner.

The Property

Accommodation

Inside

A part glazed uPVC front door opens into the entrance hall. From the hall there are doors to all rooms, access to the loft space and the airing cupboard that houses the hot water cylinder. The sitting room is well proportioned with a large bay window overlooking the front garden and an open fireplace with the original tiled surround and hearth.

The kitchen benefits from a double aspect with window to the side and overlooking the rear garden. It is fitted with floor cupboards and eye level cupboards and cabinets. There is a wood effect work surface and stainless steel sink and drainer. There are space for appliances plus an open cupboard, which could house a fridge/freezer. The floor is laid to vinyl in a herringbone pattern. There is a door to the side, which opens to a covered entrance and the drive.

There are two double bedrooms, one with outlook over the frontage and the main bedroom overlooks the rear garden and has fitted wardrobes and a chest of drawers. The bathroom is fitted with a WC, wash hand basin and walk in bath with seat and electric shower above.

Outside

Parking and Garage
The bungalow is approached from the cul de sac via double metal gates that open onto a tarmacadam drive with space to park two to three cars and leads up to the garage. The garage has double doors and window to the side and measures 4.93 m x 2.44 m/16'2'' x 8' - it is in need of some restoration.

Gardens
There are good sized front and rear gardens that present the opportunity to create outdoor space to suit your own needs and to your own landscaping ideas.
