Lovingly cared for and immaculately presented by the current owners, this three-bedroom semi-detached home occupies a sought-after position in Lordswood and offers an appealing balance of stylish interiors, generous living space and a garden designed to be properly enjoyed. With off-street parking, a separate home office and an impressive garden room providing valuable additional space, this is a home that has been adapted particularly well for modern family life.

Step inside and the entrance hallway immediately gives the house a welcoming, practical feel. To the front is the contemporary kitchen, measuring approximately 12'8" x 7'9", finished with a striking combination of deep-toned and white shaker-style cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces and warm metallic handles. White metro tiling keeps the look crisp and timeless, while integrated cooking appliances, an induction-style hob, generous storage and recessed lighting create a kitchen that feels smart without sacrificing everyday functionality.

Across the hallway is a particularly useful cloakroom and utility room. This space incorporates a downstairs WC and wash basin alongside room for laundry appliances and additional storage, keeping the practical side of family life neatly tucked away from the main living areas.

Continue through the hallway and the house opens into a superb living and dining space of approximately 18'6" x 13'3". There is plenty of room here for both a substantial seating area and a full-size dining table, making it equally suited to quiet evenings at home and having friends or family over. Windows and glazed doors draw your eye towards the rear garden, bringing plenty of natural light into the room and creating an easy connection between inside and out. In the warmer months, the doors can be opened onto the deck, allowing the living space to flow naturally into the garden.

The rear garden has clearly been arranged with family life and entertaining in mind. A generous deck immediately outside the house provides an ideal spot for outdoor dining, barbecues and relaxed summer evenings, while the lawn beyond gives children space to play without making the garden overly demanding to maintain. Established planting and mature greenery provide an attractive backdrop, while a pathway leads through the garden to one of the property's most useful features.

The detached garden room measures approximately 16'1" x 7'10" and is currently fitted out as a studio. Finished to a smart standard with lighting, flooring and a contemporary feature wall, it gives the next owner genuine flexibility. It could continue as a professional treatment or therapy room, become a dedicated home gym, a peaceful office away from the main house, a hobby studio or simply somewhere to retreat, entertain and enjoy the garden throughout the year. For anyone working from home or running a business that benefits from separation from the main living accommodation, this space could make a significant difference to day-to-day life.

There is further flexibility to the side of the house, where a separate office is accessed externally. Measuring approximately 9'9" x 4'6", it provides another useful working area without taking over a bedroom or corner of the lounge, particularly valuable for households where more than one person regularly works from home.

Upstairs, the accommodation continues with three bedrooms arranged around the landing. The principal bedroom is an excellent double, approximately 12'3" x 12'2", with built-in wardrobes providing valuable storage while leaving plenty of floor space for additional furniture. The second bedroom is another generous double, measuring approximately 12'11" x 12'2", making it ideal for an older child, guests or anyone wanting a spacious second bedroom. The third bedroom measures approximately 9'3" x 8'3" and works well as a child's room, nursery or additional study if required.

The family bathroom has been updated in a clean contemporary style, with marble-effect tiling, a bath, WC, wash basin with fitted vanity storage and a modern anthracite-style radiator completing the room.

Outside to the front, the block-paved driveway provides off-street parking, an increasingly useful feature for busy households. Altogether, the main house and garden room extend to approximately 93.4 sq m, or 1,005 sq ft, according to the supplied floor plan, giving the property a particularly versatile amount of usable space.

The location adds further to the appeal. Lordswood is well placed for families wanting access to a choice of local schools, while road links towards the A2 and M2 make the property convenient for those commuting across Medway, towards Maidstone, the wider Kent area and beyond. Everyday amenities are also within convenient reach, allowing the house to work just as well for busy weekday routines as it does for weekends at home.

What makes this property especially appealing is the way the different spaces work together. There is somewhere to cook, somewhere to gather, dedicated space for working from home and a garden that feels like an extension of the living accommodation rather than an afterthought. For buyers looking for a well-presented three-bedroom home that already accommodates the realities of modern family life, while still offering flexibility for the future, this is a property that deserves to be seen in person.

What the owners say...

"We bought our home in Arundel Close with the intention of modernising it and creating a family home, and it has certainly been that for us. It has seen us through some of our biggest milestones, from getting married to bringing home and raising our two boys, so we have made some very special memories here.

We’ve loved the space the house gives us, particularly the open living and dining area, which has been brilliant for entertaining friends and family. We’ve also really enjoyed making the garden our own and it has become a fantastic space for the children to play, for having people over, or simply relaxing outside.

The location has been another big part of why we’ve enjoyed living here. Being able to cross the road and head straight out for a walk through the nearby woods is something we’ve always appreciated, while still having schools and local amenities close by.

It will be difficult to leave a home that has played such a big part in our family life, but we hope the next owners enjoy living here and make as many happy memories as we have."
