House For Sale £485,000
Wyke Road, Gillingham

* END OF CHAIN * LOCATED IN THE POPULAR WYKE AREA * SITS WITHIN LARGE PLOT * PRIVATE GARDENS * FOUR BEDROOMS * ANNEXE POTENTIAL * A great chance to purchase, with no onward chain, a wonderful detached family home with four good sized bedrooms, boasting a slightly elevated position set back from the road and enjoying hill views in the distance. The property sits in just over a quarter of an acre of private grounds in the sought after and desirable Wyke area of the town and within walking distance to a primary school, café, One Stop with post office and a pet shop. The town centre and the mainline train station are also easily accessed. We believe that the property was built in the mid 1980s and has been a very much loved and enjoyed home of our seller for the last twelve years. During this time it has been well maintained and improved with most of the windows and external doors being updated to uPVC, a new gas central heating boiler was installed about a year ago and the kitchen units were replaced in the early years of ownership. The property offers well proportioned comfortable accommodation with the option to update to one's own taste and design, as and when required as well as providing multi functional room usage. There is the potential to create an annexe for a dependent relative, if required, by further developing the front part of the garage, which is currently a garden store or to extend over the reception room (old garage), subject to the necessary permissions. This lovely home must be viewed to really appreciate what it has to offer and how easily it will satisfy many potential buyers' requirements. An early viewing is strongly urged to avoid missing out on the opportunity to be the next owner.
