Tucked away from the road and occupying an impressive plot extending to approximately 190ft, this rarely available two-bedroom detached bungalow offers a wonderful sense of privacy, generous gardens and beautifully presented accommodation, all within easy reach of Gillingham's local amenities and transport connections.

One of the property's most attractive features is its setting. Positioned well back from the road, the bungalow is approached through its delightful south-facing front garden, which extends to approximately 115ft in length. Predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by established boundaries, this wonderful outdoor space creates a real sense of separation from the outside world. Whether you enjoy spending time in the garden, entertaining family and friends or simply relaxing in the sunshine, the amount of outside space on offer is something rarely found with a property of this type.

The accommodation itself is thoughtfully arranged across one level, extending to approximately 725 sq. ft., with a central entrance hallway providing a natural separation between the bedrooms and the main living accommodation.

To one side of the hallway are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both offering comfortable accommodation with plenty of flexibility for different lifestyles. The second bedroom could equally serve as a guest room, hobby room or dedicated home office, depending on your requirements. Both bedrooms are conveniently positioned alongside the beautifully appointed family bathroom, which has been finished in a contemporary style with attractive stone-effect wall tiling, a modern white suite, a bath with shower and glass screen, a vanity wash basin and a chrome heated towel rail.

On the opposite side of the hallway, the property opens into a spacious lounge and dining area, a comfortable and inviting room with plenty of natural light entering through windows to the front and side. There is ample space for both relaxing and dining, while the attractive fireplace creates a focal point within the room. The open connection to the kitchen gives the living accommodation a sociable feel, allowing the spaces to work together while retaining their individual character.

The kitchen has been stylishly updated with a contemporary range of light-coloured shaker-style units, contrasting grey work surfaces and striking dark green tiled splashbacks, bringing a rich splash of colour to the space. Integrated appliances include an oven, gas hob, extractor hood and a full-size dishwasher, providing both practicality and convenience for everyday living. A particularly useful breakfast bar provides an informal spot for morning coffee or a quick bite to eat, adding another practical dimension to the room.

Positioned at the rear of the bungalow, the kitchen also benefits from a glazed door opening directly onto the rear garden, creating a lovely connection between the inside and outside spaces.

Adding to the home's everyday comfort is the Hive smart central heating system, which allows you to control the heating remotely from your smartphone. Whether you're adjusting the temperature while relaxing at home or making sure the bungalow is warm before returning on a chilly evening, this modern feature offers added convenience and flexibility.

The rear garden extends to approximately 50ft and offers a further private area to enjoy. A generous paved patio provides plenty of room for outdoor furniture, summer barbecues and entertaining, while the adjoining lawn offers space for gardening, play or simply relaxing outdoors. A timber garden shed provides useful additional storage, and the enclosed boundaries help create a peaceful setting.

Another particularly valuable feature is the detached garage, positioned at the roadside and complemented by a driveway providing off-road parking. With the bungalow itself sitting further back within the plot, this arrangement allows the gardens and living accommodation to feel pleasantly removed from the road, adding to the property's sense of privacy.

Despite its tucked-away position, the bungalow remains conveniently located for everyday life. Gillingham's high-speed railway station is approximately 1.5 miles away, offering connections towards London, while a nearby bus route provides an alternative means of getting around. Local shops and everyday amenities are within easy reach, and convenient access to the A2 and M2 makes travelling further afield straightforward.

What makes this property particularly appealing is the combination of features on offer. Detached bungalows are always sought after, but finding one with two genuine double bedrooms, modern kitchen and bathroom fittings, a detached garage and such generous gardens is increasingly unusual.

For buyers looking to enjoy single-storey living without compromising on outside space, or those hoping to find a private home where they can enjoy the garden and still remain well connected, this bungalow has a great deal to offer.

The photographs provide a glimpse of the setting, but it is only when you approach the property and appreciate the distance from the road, the extent of the gardens and the comfortable accommodation inside that its appeal becomes fully apparent.

Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate everything this rarely available detached bungalow has to offer.

What the owner says...

"I brought this property two decades ago in June 2007 for the peace and quiet a detached property brings especially one set so far back from the road with its large, enclosed south facing front garden (that the kids loved to play in) and its walkable distance from the train station. In the past decade I have upgraded the bungalow with a new roof, new double glazing (Everest), new kitchen, new bathroom and additional off road parking. It will be heart breaking to leave this property after all this time but with family living elsewhere it is time to join them."
