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.
