Description

This semi-detached bungalow, set in the desirable village of Istead Rise, presents a valuable opportunity for those looking to invest or renovate. With no forward chain, buyers can explore the potential to modernize and expand the living space to better suit their needs. The location offers convenient access to local amenities, including a doctor’s surgery, dental practice, co-operative grocery store, community center, and various shops, all within easy walking distance. Its strategic position also provides excellent road connections to major routes such as the A2, M25, M2, and M20, making it especially appealing for commuters. Additionally, Bluewater Shopping Centre is nearby for those seeking retail and leisure options. Inside the bungalow is a well-structured layout that includes two double bedrooms at the front of the home. The functional design features a shower room and separate WC for added convenience. At the rear, a generous lounge bathed in natural light flows into a separate kitchen that provides access to the garden—a layout that offers possibilities for open-plan living or extension, subject to necessary permissions. The loft area includes a dormer window and can serve as a flexible space—ideal for a third bedroom, home office, or hobby area. There’s potential here for further enhancements such as adding a front dormer or an additional bathroom (again depending on permissions). Outdoor spaces include a long block-paved driveway leading up to a well-maintained front lawn. The tiered rear garden adds elevation and privacy while presenting opportunities for landscaping according to personal taste. A brick-built garage is located at the rear/side of the property—this could serve as extra storage or be transformed into a workshop or garden office. With strong rail connections available from Gravesend and Meopham stations, this property holds promise not just for families but also investors looking to create something special in this sought-after area. Viewing early is advisable to fully appreciate its potential.
