Brilliant location on the edge of Gillingham
A detached bungalow currently in need of modernisation or scope for further development ( stpp ). For sale by Informal Tender. Deadline for bids is 12.00 noon 16th October 2025
This detached bungalow offers a rare opportunity for those with vision and creativity as this plot is an ideal ‘knock down and rebuild’ project.
Set on a generous plot on nearly 0.2 aces, with a private driveway and garage, this two-bedroom home is ripe for transformation. The property has experienced some movement and is ideally suited to cash buyers but the possibilities here are endless.
Perfect for developers, investors, or ambitious self-builders, this property is a blank canvas in a desirable location with plenty of scope for improvement or redevelopment (subject to planning).

Situation
‘Wyke’ is a popular area on the western side of Gillingham. The Town itself offers services to cater for most everyday requirements including Waitrose, Asda and Lidl supermarkets, pharmacy, bank, post office, doctors’ surgery, pubs and cafes. Gillingham enjoys a mainline railway station serving London Waterloo (2 Hours) and the West Country and is located just 4 miles from the A303 giving road access to the South West and London via the M3, whilst the A350 provides access to the coast. For more diverse shopping and hospitals, the towns of Yeovil and Salisbury are 30 – 45 minutes by car. The area offers a number of highly regarded state and independent primary and secondary schools and numerous leisure activities are on offer at the local leisure centre as well as golf, horse riding, cycling rugby and football clubs in the vicinity. There are lovely countryside walks and places of interest to visit right on the doorstep.
