We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Set within one of Hempstead’s most sought-after residential locations, this beautifully positioned four-bedroom detached family home offers approximately 1,342 sq ft of internal accommodation, rising to around 1,638 sq ft in total when including the detached double garage.
Occupying a generous plot of approximately 0.12 acre, with a private rear garden backing towards woodland, this is a home that combines space, setting and lifestyle in a way that is becoming increasingly hard to find.
From the moment you arrive, the position feels special.
Marquis Drive has long been regarded as one of Hempstead’s most desirable addresses, offering a quiet, established setting while still being incredibly convenient for everyday family life.
The property sits attractively within its plot, with a detached double garage to the front and a welcoming approach that immediately sets the tone for the space on offer inside.
The ground floor layout works brilliantly for modern family living.
The entrance hall leads through to a choice of reception spaces, giving the home a sense of flexibility that buyers will really appreciate.
The main reception room measures approximately 18ft and enjoys a lovely outlook towards the rear garden, with French doors opening directly outside.
This creates a natural connection between the house and garden, ideal for summer entertaining, children playing in and out, or simply enjoying the peaceful woodland backdrop.
There is also a separate 18ft dining room, giving the home a more formal entertaining space, while still feeling connected to the main flow of the house.
Whether used for family meals, Christmas gatherings, homework space or as a second sitting room, it gives the ground floor excellent versatility.
The kitchen/breakfast room is another major feature, measuring approximately 25ft in length.
Bright, practical and well arranged, it offers the kind of everyday family space that becomes the real hub of the home.
There is room for casual dining, morning coffee, after-school catch ups and day-to-day cooking, with views out towards the garden helping the space feel calm and connected.
A ground floor cloakroom completes the downstairs accommodation, adding the convenience expected from a detached family home of this size.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with four well-proportioned bedrooms.
The main bedroom is a particularly generous room, measuring approximately 15ft, complete with fitted wardrobes and its own en-suite shower room.
Bedroom two is another excellent double, while bedrooms three and four offer further flexibility for children, guests, home working or dressing space.
A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, giving the first floor a practical and balanced layout for family life. Outside, the rear garden is one of the standout features.
The plot measures approximately 0.12 acre, and the garden enjoys a wonderfully private feel, backing towards woodland and mature greenery.
It is the kind of outside space that gives a home real breathing room.
There is space for children to play, areas for outdoor dining and entertaining, and the peaceful outlook gives a lovely sense of separation from the day-to-day.
The detached double garage is another huge advantage, offering approximately 296 sq ft of additional space.
For some, it will be ideal for cars, bikes and storage, while others may see future potential for a workshop, gym, hobby space or studio, subject to any necessary consents.
The location is a major part of the appeal. Hempstead continues to be one of Medway’s most popular family areas, and Marquis Drive places you close to everything that makes it so desirable.
Hempstead Valley Shopping Centre is nearby, offering supermarkets, restaurants, coffee shops, retail stores and everyday services.
Families are well placed for local primary and secondary schooling, as well as parks, green spaces and nearby woodland walks. For commuters, the location is equally practical.
There is convenient access towards Rainham, Gillingham, the M2 motorway network and wider routes towards Maidstone, Sittingbourne, Canterbury and London.
Rainham and Gillingham stations are also within reach, providing rail connections for those needing to travel further afield. This is a home that offers far more than just four bedrooms.
It has the plot, the garage, the garden, the woodland outlook, the family layout and the address.
For buyers looking for a detached home in one of Hempstead’s strongest residential locations, Marquis Drive is a very exciting opportunity.
