Stunning period property! The current owners have overseen a substantial re-configuration and full update of this Grade ll listed, late Georgian four double bedroom terraced home. A must-see property, the ground floor has been sensitively renovated to create a reception space that spans the full length of the house, with a sizeable fitted kitchen, including Rangemaster cooker, dining room, with cast iron fireplace and original sash windows. The lower level has seen an extensive re-modelling of basement rooms - now a fabulous lounge with log burner, a quality bathroom with shower and and traditional cast iron bath, and utility area in the hall. The first floor has the principal bedroom, en-suite shower room and second bedroom. On the second floor are two double bedrooms and a further family bathroom. The refurbishment included replastering, new plumbing throughout, new cast iron radiators, a partial rewire (including new fuse board), new kitchen and bathroom fittings and full redecoration featuring historic Farrow & Ball paints and timeless William Morris wallpapers. The owners have blended the original and period features with the contemporary styling expected today. The courtyard garden is ideal for relaxing and entertaining, which leads to a brick garage and an allocated parking space to the rear - a great rarity in central Rochester. Rochester High Street has an interesting mix of independent shops, cafes and restaurants. Kings and St Andrew's private schools along with St Margaret's at Troy Town primary school, Rochester Independent College and Trinity School and College are all within a quarter mile, along with the Vines Park, Jacksons Field, Rochester Cathedral and Castle. There are Hi-Speed mainline services to London St Pancras, Ebbsfleet international, Stratford International and regular services to London Victoria and London Bridge. There are also good road links to the A2, M2 and M20. Viewing is essential to fully appreciate this fabulous period home, call now to make an appointment.
