Cottage for sale in Wyke Road, Gillingham SP8

A great chance to get a foot on the housing ladder for the first time with this charming two double bedroom mid terraced stone cottage, presented to the market with the bonus of no onward chain and enjoying a quiet tucked away location within the conservation area of Gillingham and only five minutes walk of the town centre and ten minutes of the train station. Gillingham provides a wide range of facilities with a selection of individual shops and chain stores, doctor and dentist surgeries and schooling for all ages as well as a variety of entertainment venues. The property forms part of a small development of just eight homes that were converted/built in the mid 1980s, we believe that the cottage was formerly the barn and retains character features, such as, exposed stone walls, deep window sills and exposed beams. Catering to today's expectations the property benefits from uPVC double glazing and gas fired central heating. In addition to being a great first time buy, this delightful cottage would also make a wonderful downsize, weekend retreat or investment for the rental market either as assured shorthold, Airbnb or as a holiday let. A viewing is vital to really appreciate what is on offer, not just the property itself but also the location. An early viewing is urged to avoid missing out on the opportunity to be the next owner.
