5 bed end terrace house for sale

Gillingham Road, Gillingham ME7

Moments from the High Street and just 0.4 miles from Gillingham High Speed Station, this end-terrace stands out for its sheer scale, period character and flexible layout. Once two neighbouring houses and now a single, sprawling home, it offers genuine room to grow with five double bedrooms, three reception rooms and a 50 foot, south-east facing garden that catches the morning and lunchtime sun.

A pretty bay front and glazed porch set the tone, stepping inside to high ceilings and a sequence of generous living spaces that make entertaining effortless. The front reception is perfect as a snug or playroom, the central living room stretches the length of the house so larger sofas and a big screen fit easily, and the third reception by the bay window is ideal for music, gaming or a quiet reading room. At the rear, the family sized kitchen has ample worktops for batch cooking and baking, space for appliances and a sociable breakfast bar, with a handy ground floor bathroom and a separate shower room close by for busy mornings. A discreet hatch gives access to an additional basement area, useful for storing bikes, suitcases and the Christmas decorations.

Upstairs, all five bedrooms are doubles, so there will be no arguments over who gets the box room. Three feature built-in storage to keep everything neat, and the family bathroom serves the floor. The footprint is rare for the area and offers scope to reconfigure to suit your lifestyle in time, subject to any necessary permissions.

Outside, the long rear garden invites barbecues and football practice, with level lawn, space for raised beds and a large shed. Facing south-east, it is bright from breakfast through early afternoon, a lovely spot for a coffee before the school run. To the front there is potential to create off-road parking, subject to consents, adding further practicality to everyday life.

The location is brilliant for commuters and students, with fast services to London on your doorstep and the High Street’s shops, cafés and everyday conveniences close at hand. Families will appreciate the abundance of bedrooms, multiple bath and shower rooms and the garden, while investors will recognise the HMO potential in a highly rentable position.

A one-of-a-kind home in a prime Gillingham setting, big on space, rich in possibilities and rarely available, ready for its next chapter with a new family or a savvy buyer who can see the opportunity

What The Owners Say...

"This home has been in our family for over 60 years. Just over 20 years ago we purchased next door as we did not want to move. We converted it into one big family home. We have enjoyed living here as it is very central for travelling both to London and the coast. It is time for us to downsize and move nearer to the coast and make new memories .It will be sad to leave but time for someone else to make memories as this house has a lot of potential for either another family or an investor."
