Shaftesbury Road, Gillingham

A beautifully presented and extensively improved three bedroom semi detached home set within easy walking distance of Gillingham town centre, mainline railway station and schooling for all ages. This is a home that has been transformed by its current owners and an early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate everything on offer.

Lovingly renovated over eight years, the property has been comprehensively updated throughout and is presented in exceptional order. A new kitchen, bathroom, rewire, full replastering, new carpets, replacement windows, a woodburner and full loft insulation with boarded sections have all been carried out during their ownership. The accommodation comprises a generous sitting room diner, a conservatory, a galley kitchen, a study, a ground floor WC and a large utility room which has been added and could equally serve as an annexe, additional reception room or extended kitchen space. Upstairs three bedrooms are served by a family bathroom.

Outside, a larger than average south facing wrap around garden is enclosed and enjoys good privacy, with a lawn, garden cabin with power, a greenhouse and a vegetable patch. A substantial garage with storage above and driveway parking complete the plot.
