Kings Court Road, Gillingham

A rare chance to purchase a detached bungalow with three good sized bedrooms, set in grounds of about 0.20 of an acre with an additional parcel of land opposite, again about 0.20 acres and offered for sale with no onward chain. The property is situated in a tranquil no through lane, close to the historic site of what was Kings Court Palace, which was a royal hunting lodge used by King John. This site is listed as a protected monument. The town centre and mainline train station are both within walking distance. Gillingham offers an excellent range of facilities with a choice of independent shops and chain stores, doctor and dentist surgeries, schooling for all ages and a variety of entertainment venues.

This is the first time that the property has been brought to the market since it was built in the late 1950s having served as a much cherished and enjoyed comfortable family home. The bungalow provides plenty of homely space with the choice to enhance, allowing you to tailor it to your preferences and create the home of your dreams. There is a large kitchen with enough room for a table and chairs - great for family meals or dining with friends and the two reception rooms provide ample space for relaxing.

Outside, there is off road parking for three cars, plus the garage and there is the potential to create additional parking opposite the property. To the rear of the bungalow there is a large sunny and private rear garden - perfect for hosting a summer gathering, a safe place for children and pets to let off steam and equally a place just to unwind. The land opposite also presents opportunities to landscape to your own ideas or leave as a wildlife area or children's magical play area.

This property has to be viewed to fully appreciate its potential, as well as the peaceful location. An early viewing is urged to avoid missing out on being the second owner.
