A great opportunity to purchase a spacious ground floor apartment offering around 630 sq. ft (58.5 sq. m) of living space with two double bedrooms, gardens and presented to the market with no onward chain. The property enjoys a quiet location at the end of a cul de sac and is situated close to some delightful country and riverside walks with the town centre also easily accessible. Gillingham offers excellent facilities with a range of independent shops and chain stores, doctor and dentist surgeries plus schooling for all ages. There is also a mainline train station serving London, Waterloo and Exeter, St David's. This is the first time that the property has been brought to the open market, having been a cherished and enjoyed home for more than fifty years. During this time the property has been well maintained and provides comfortable accommodation with scope to update and change to one's own taste and choice. The gardens also allows for one's own landscaping designs. This lovely home benefits from uPVC double glazed windows and gas fired central heating from a combination boiler. It would make a wonderful first time buy, a downsize as well as a lock up and leave UK base or investment for the rental market. A viewing is imperative to truly appreciate the size of the apartment plus the outside space. An early viewing is urged to avoid missing out on the chance to be the next owner.
