If you’ve been waiting for a family home in a brilliant location, close to well-regarded schools and packed with potential to extend (Subject to the necessary permissions) or simply personalise, this could be the one. Sitting proudly on the ever-popular Fulston Manor development on the south side of Sittingbourne, this semi-detached home is coming to the market for the very first time since it was built in the 1960s.
The property offers three bedrooms, driveway parking, a detached garage and a wonderfully generous west-facing rear garden, perfect for enjoying the afternoon and evening sun.
Step inside and you’re welcomed by an entrance porch leading into a hallway with stairs to the first floor. The ground floor is nicely flexible too. The two reception rooms are linked by an opening, so they can work as a spacious double reception room, but each also has its own hallway access if you prefer them as separate spaces. The kitchen provides plenty of storage and gives access to the side of the property.
Upstairs you’ll find three bedrooms along with a family bathroom featuring a corner bath and a separate shower cubicle.
Outside is where the home really shines. The driveway has gated access through to the rear garden, a great sized west-facing space filled with mature shrubs and planting. A patio area leads onto the lawn where you’ll find a pond, a wooden shed, and access to the garage which benefits from power and light.
Practical points to note. The property is currently heated via electric storage heaters. The original gas connection remains in place, however there is no gas meter. Buyers should make their own enquiries with Southern Gas Networks if reconnection is required. Hot water is supplied via a back boiler behind the open fire.
Northwood Drive itself is a highly popular residential area to the south of town. Within walking distance you’ll find everyday shops plus Fulston Manor School, Highsted Grammar School for Girls and Borden Grammar School for Boys. Sittingbourne town centre and the mainline railway station are also walkable, making this a great spot for families and commuters alike.
The wider location really adds to the appeal. Sittingbourne strikes that ideal balance between town convenience and surrounding countryside. The A249 gives easy access to the M2 and M20, while fast trains reach London St Pancras in around an hour. Leisure options are plentiful too, including The Light cinema and bowling complex, retail park shopping including M&S Food, and fitness facilities at The Swallows Leisure Centre and Reynolds Gym & Spa.
For outdoor space you’re spoilt for choice. King George’s Park, Borden Nature Reserve, The Grove Park and Milton Creek Country Park are all close by. Nearby villages like Rodmersham and Tunstall offer lovely countryside walks, and the Saxon Shore Way through Upchurch, Lower Halstow and Conyer makes a perfect weekend outing. And when the coast calls, the award-winning beaches of the Isle of Sheppey and Whitstable are just a short drive away.
