Some words from the current owners

‘We have lived at Lewis Road for 6 years and love our home. We are sad to leave it, but we have children now and are looking to upsize but remain in the same area. We will miss this home very much as we love everything about it. Myself and my partner have lived in the Istead Rise area our whole lives and want to stay here and bring up our own children.

We wouldn’t want to live anywhere else! All the neighbours are very nice and keep themselves to themselves, yet also keep an eye out and are there to help. We enjoy the peace and quiet and how local we are to the shops and park for the children. We have a lovely butcher shop that we like to walk to on a Saturday morning for our weekend meats. The Co-Op is also very handy and has everything you need. There are also many other stores on the parade that are very useful.

We have completely renovated the property into a cosy new home. When we moved in, we stripped it, plastered all the house, put in new sockets, new lights, new door skirting, and painted the whole house. We put in a new bathroom, water softener, new kitchen with a large oven and replaced the flooring throughout. There is a new Combi boiler and all radiators and pipes have been flushed. We updated with a new electrical board, new windows and doors to all the property’s exterior and also built a new garage with a roller shutter electric door. We installed a Texecom alarm system to the house and garage, and new soffits and gutters. There is a new flat roof outside, new fences, new patio, new grass, new driveway and wall. The alley is all sheeted and stoned with lighting around the driveway and we’ve installed new gates.’

It is a short drive from the A2, Bluewater, Gravesend town centre and Meopham and Ebbsfleet Train Station.

The Village itself is full of friendly faces and great amenities, including a curry house, butchers, pharmacy, dry cleaners, fish and chip shop, post office and Co-op.

Bluewater shopping Centre is a short drive away with some superb shopping facilities and restaurants and there are also plans for development in the Ebbsfleet village, including a new paramount theme park at Swanscombe.

The property is within the catchment area of several reputable primary and secondary schools and Istead Rise Primary School is just a few minutes’ walk from the house.
