Medbury Road, Gravesend, DA12 2NT

If you’re looking for a home that’s ready to move straight into, with no DIY, no fuss, this beautifully presented four-bedroom semi in a peaceful cul-de-sac could be just the one.

The current owners have thoughtfully extended the rear of the house to create a fantastic kitchen and a large open plan lounge and dining space. It’s bright, spacious and very welcoming, with two V-lux skylights above the main kitchen area that flood the room with natural light. It’s the kind of space that really becomes the heart of the home, perfect for family life.

One of the real highlights here is the professionally converted garage. It’s now a generous ground-floor bedroom with its own en-suite shower room, ideal for anyone who needs ground floor accommodation, perhaps for a relative who can’t manage the stairs, or for guests who’ll appreciate having their own private space. It could also work brilliantly as a home office or playroom if you don’t need the extra bedroom.

Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms along with a stylish new shower room. Everything feels fresh, clean and carefully looked after, it’s a real credit to the current owners. There’s a lovely flow to the layout, and the whole place feels light and airy throughout.

Outside, the garden is another brilliant feature. It’s designed to be as low maintenance as possible with a great patio area for relaxing or entertaining, and a neat artificial lawn that stays green all year round. Whether you’ve got kids who love to play or you just want somewhere sunny to sit with a cup of tea, it’s a space you’ll really enjoy.

Parking is another big plus here. You’ve got a driveway at the front and more space down the side, room for around three vehicles in total. And because the house sits in a quiet cul-de-sac, there’s very little through traffic and plenty of extra parking for visitors. Ideal for those with children to consider.

Location-wise, you’re well placed for everything. Families will be pleased to know that Gravesend has some excellent schools nearby, including Gravesend Grammar School for boys, Mayfield Grammar School for girls, and St George’s C of E School, all very well regarded.

Commuters have a choice of options too. Gravesend mainline station offers regular services into London, while Ebbsfleet International is just a short drive away, providing high-speed links into St Pancras in under 20 minutes, not to mention Eurostar routes to Europe. You’ve also got easy access to the A2/M25 for anyone who needs to travel by car.

For shopping and days out, Bluewater is just down the road, offering everything from big-name stores to restaurants, a cinema, and more. While Gravesend itself is home to a good old fashioned town centre, with a massive selection of shops, restaurants, bars and entertainment options. Its also great for those who love to get out and about, whether taking a walk along the river or the canal, or taking the dog for a walk in Shorne Country Park.

All in all, this is a really smart, flexible family home in a quiet spot with great amenities close by. It’s been well looked after, tastefully improved, and can be enjoyed from day one and for many years to follow. For viewings quote ref MB1202
