Yarrow Court, Gillingham

A great opportunity to purchase a well presented and maintained detached family home boasting generously sized accommodation with four good sized bedrooms and situated in a small cul de sac in the sought after Wyke area of the town. The property is situated where town and country merge, and takes in some lovely views towards the downs and Shaftesbury and enjoys many walks right on the doorstep. The town centre and mainline train station is within about a twenty minute walk away. Gillingham caters exceptionally well for every day needs with a selection of individual shops and chain supermarkets, entertainment venues, doctor and dentist surgeries as well as schooling for all ages.

The property is about 29 years old and has been the much loved and enjoyed home of our sellers for the last 22 years. During this time it has been meticulously maintained and has benefitted from a new boiler 2 years ago and a replacement conservatory with a self cleaning roof, which was added 4 years ago. The property offers plenty of space for family and friends to unwind and relax with three spacious reception rooms and a good sized kitchen with plenty of room for informal dining and meals with the family. The bathroom and en-suite add convenience for all - especially for that morning rush.

Outside, the property does not disappoint either, with its delightful rear garden, offering a peaceful retreat where you can enjoy the outdoors reading a book or just pottering about and there is ample space for hosting a summer barbecue. There is also a garage for a car or storage and parking for three cars on the drive.

Being part of a small cul de sac, this home offers a sense of community and security and is perfect for families looking for a peaceful neighbourhood to call home. A viewing is essential to truly appreciate all that this house has to offer and with a few personal touches how it will become your home.
