4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Parker Close, Parkwood, Gillingham ME8

Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Parkwood, this immaculately presented semi-detached home pairs generous living space with an easy, low-maintenance lifestyle. The driveway comfortably takes multiple vehicles, the integral garage adds further parking or valuable storage, and there is clear potential to convert if you ever need more accommodation.

Step in at lower ground level to a welcoming hallway and a versatile room that works beautifully as a fourth bedroom, home office, playroom or studio. It is a private, calm space away from the main living areas, ideal for homework, Zoom calls or visiting family, with the garage opposite keeping bikes, paddleboards and Christmas decorations neatly out of sight.

Up on the main floor the house opens up for everyday living. The kitchen and dining area flow together, so cooking, homework and supper with friends all happen in one sociable place. The kitchen is contemporary and well planned, with fully integrated appliances, great worktop space and an island that invites lazy weekend coffees or quick school-run breakfasts. A handy cloakroom and utility sit just off the hall, keeping the practicalities of family life tucked away.

To the rear, a thoughtful extension has created a bright lounge that feels made for relaxing. Skylights draw the light across the room, French doors frame the garden, and the modern fireplace adds a cosy focal point on winter evenings. Step outside and the garden is exactly what busy households want, neatly landscaped with artificial lawn and raised borders, ready for barbecues, children’s games and four-legged friends, and not overlooked to the rear so it feels private.

The top floor gives you three comfortable bedrooms and a fresh family bathroom, all well presented and easy to move straight into. Storage is good throughout the house, and the layout balances togetherness on the main floor with quiet rooms above and below when you want your own space.

Life here is wonderfully convenient. Parkwood Precinct is just moments away for everyday essentials, coffee and a quick bite. The A2 and M2 are within easy reach for commuting, weekend escapes and school runs across Medway are straightforward, with sought-after local schools close by. After work, you can be home in minutes, cars parked on the drive, and supper bubbling away while the children spread out between the lounge, garden and playroom.

If you are looking for a flexible 3–4 bedroom home with parking, a private low-maintenance garden and a bright open plan heart, all in a peaceful no-through road, this Parkwood address is a superb fit. Come and see how easily it could suit your day-to-day, from busy mornings to relaxed Sunday afternoons.
