About this home
A well presented and versatile five bedroom link detached home set within a premium cul de sac in Gillingham, within easy reach of riverside walks, open green spaces and the town centre.
Lovingly maintained and improved by the current owners over eight years, the accommodation is both generous and flexible across two floors. On the ground floor a sitting room with a feature fireplace and double doors leading to the garden sits alongside a kitchen diner, a utility room and a ground floor WC. Two further rooms off the hallway offer excellent flexibility, currently used as a study and an office but equally well suited as a snug, hobby room or additional reception space. Upstairs five bedrooms are found, the main bedroom benefiting from an en suite and fitted wardrobes, with the remaining bedrooms also benefiting from fitted wardrobes. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.
Outside, an enclosed east facing rear garden enjoys a good level of privacy with a lawn and patio area, alongside a private driveway accessed from the rear offering parking for two vehicles. A larger than average garage completes the plot.

The kitchen diner is fitted with traditional shaker style units and laminate worktops with an eye level oven and space for further appliances, with a utility room leading directly off providing useful additional storage and laundry space. A ground floor WC completes the accommodation at this level.
