Detached bungalow for sale in Victoria Road, Gillingham SP8

An opportunity not to be missed - a rare chance to purchase a delightful, individual detached bungalow with two double bedrooms and boasting a large private and sunny rear garden. The bungalow is situated towards the end of a quiet cul de sac and in a prime location not far from the town's high street, as well as the mainline train station. Gillingham offers a complete range of facilities with independent shops and chain stores, doctor and dentist surgeries, schooling for all ages and a variety of entertainment venues. The bungalow is also ideally placed with easy access to country and riverside walks.

The bungalow was built in the early/mid 1960s and has been a loved and enjoyed home to our seller for the last thirteen years. During this time it has been very well maintained and improved. Many of the windows were replaced in the early years, LED lighting has been fitted, wood flooring laid to the sitting/dining room and a new central heating boiler was installed about seven years ago. More recently, the shower room has been fitted with a contemporary suite with laminate panelled walls for easy cleaning and maintenance. In addition, there is cavity wall insulation and roof insulation. The bungalow's location offers a tranquil retreat and the large garden is perfect for green-fingered enthusiasts or those seeking plenty of outdoor space. There is also generous parking on the drive and in the garage plus extra parking could be created, if needed.

The bungalow presents a fantastic opportunity for you to add your own personal touch and create the home of your dreams and an early viewing is urged, as properties of this type and in this location, will not be available for long.
