Parking
A substantial, four bedroom detached property boasting spacious accommodation, sitting in a generous plot on the outskirts of Gillingham.
Malt Cottage is a superb family home providing ample, flexible accommodation that could be utilised for working from home, hobbies or the potential for annex accommodation to allow for multi-generational living.
The ground floor accommodation comprises a spacious sitting room that links into a good size conservatory, a dining hall, kitchen with ample wall and floor cabinets, a bathroom and a utility / boot room. Two additional rooms have been created by converting the garage and these are currently used to work from home but could easily become additional bedroom and living space. On the first floor is the main bathroom and four well-proportioned bedrooms, one of which includes built in wardrobes.

Bay Road is just a short distance from the centre of the popular town of Gillingham. The Town offers services to cater for most everyday requirements including Waitrose, Asda and Lidl supermarkets, pharmacy, bank, post office, doctors surgery, pubs and cafes. Gillingham enjoys a mainline railway station serving London Waterloo (2 Hours) and is located just 4 miles from the A303 giving access to the South West and London via the M3, whilst the A350 provides access to the coast. The area provides a number of highly regarded state and private primary and secondary schools and numerous countryside pursuits including, golf, horse riding, cycling and sports centres.
Outside
The property is located in the favoured Bay area, on the outskirts of Gillingham. You can reach the town centre on foot in about 15 minutes using back lanes and footpaths. The property sits centrally within its ample plot. A good size tarmacadam driveway allows parking for several vehicles to the front whilst further off-road parking is available adjacent to the side garden alongside a timber shed and an area of law. The main garden lies to the rear and is predominantly lawn. Raised lower borders follow the fence line and are planted with Poplar trees, climbers and shrubs. A secret decked area with pergola is tucked in a corner and a paved patio is the perfect spot to sit with friends and enjoy the south facing aspect.
