This property presents a unique opportunity for renovation and redevelopment, situated on the outskirts of Gillingham's town center, adjacent to Medway Maritime Hospital. The two-story building, previously utilized as a warehouse and trade counter, boasts significant potential for transformation into residential units or alternative uses, pending planning permission.
The existing structure consists of substantial industrial space with open-plan warehouse areas and dedicated storage sections. Features include a main trade counter area with commercial access and a shutter door offering convenient entry for vehicles. The first floor contains additional office space alongside workshop facilities—creating a versatile environment that can be adapted to various needs. There’s also former living space that historically served as flats on both levels, hinting at its residential conversion possibilities.
Indicative plans suggest that the current layout could be reconfigured to create up to 21 residential units, comprising one- and two-bedroom flats complete with amenity spaces. This aspect alone highlights the investment potential that this property holds in a market where demand for housing continues to rise.
Located on Canterbury Street, the property benefits from excellent connectivity and local amenities. It is positioned within walking distance of Gillingham Town Center, which features a mix of national retailers and independent shops. The area is well-connected by road and rail; with quick access to the M2 motorway and direct train services to London St Pancras within approximately 44 minutes.
Additionally, the surrounding neighborhood includes residential dwellings, local businesses, and educational institutions such as Byron Primary School, contributing to a vibrant community atmosphere.
With a gross internal area of over 13,320 square feet spread across multiple functional spaces including offices and workshops, this property provides ample scope for creative redevelopment or reinvention tailored to contemporary needs. The small parking area allows for vehicle access while maintaining an efficient use of land.
Overall, this former industrial site not only offers flexibility in usage but also stands out as a strategic investment opportunity in an increasingly competitive market landscape.
