4 bed terraced house for sale

Dunlin Drive, St. Marys Island, Chatham, Kent ME4

The Morning Rush Just Got A Lot Calmer. Four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a utility room and parking for three - on St. Marys Island, a short walk from the primary school. Family life has enough moving parts without the house making it harder.

St. Marys Island has a way of catching people off guard. Most families arrive expecting a practical housing estate and leave surprised by the water at the end of the road, the marina a five-minute walk away, and the kind of unhurried Sunday morning feel that is genuinely hard to find this close to Chatham.

And the house itself? It solves the problem properly.

Four bedrooms and four bathrooms means the morning routine stops being a negotiation. Nobody is waiting outside a locked door. Nobody is late because someone else is running behind. That kind of friction adds up across a school year - and here, it simply does not happen.

Downstairs, two separate reception rooms give the whole family somewhere to be at the same time without being in each other's way. The larger lounge has French doors that open directly onto the garden, so when the weather allows, the space effectively doubles. The second reception room works equally well as a playroom, a dining room, or a home office - whichever the next few years demand.

The kitchen sits at the heart of the ground floor, with an L-shaped layout, a double oven, a gas hob and built-in appliances. It is practical and well-fitted - a proper working kitchen for a family that actually cooks. Next to it, the utility room takes the laundry out of the kitchen entirely. Coats, muddy shoes, the washing machine, the ironing pile - all of it has a home that is not the room where everyone eats breakfast.

Parking for three cars sits out front, which means no circling the street on a Tuesday evening after work, and no complicated reversing operation when all three spaces are used.

Upstairs, the main bedroom has its own en-suite. The second bedroom has one too, which makes a significant difference if you have older children, elderly relatives visiting, or simply want a guest room that functions like a proper spare. The family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, and it is a full-sized room with a bath and an overhead shower.

The primary school is a short walk from the front door. Not the kind of walk that requires the car, or the stress, or a ten-minute drive-and-park operation that adds half an hour to the morning. That is not a small thing. It is, for a lot of families, the thing.

The marina and dockside are close enough to walk to on a weekend, and the waterside setting gives St. Marys Island a character that the postcode alone does not suggest. It is the kind of place where people move in expecting practicality and stay because they actually like living there.

The property is chain-free, which means no waiting on someone else's sale, no collapsed chains, no extended uncertainty. When you are ready, the transaction can move.

If you have been looking for a four-bedroom family home in a good school catchment - with space for everyone, parking sorted and the practical fundamentals genuinely covered - this one gets the list of what it does not have very short, very quickly.

Arrange a viewing and come and see it for yourself - there is plenty of interest expected and it will not hang around.
