Guide price £425,000–£450,000 for this chain-free, large three-bedroom semi-detached family home in Rochester. The house is presented ready to move into, with a modern fitted kitchen, a bright lounge/diner with French doors to a generous rear garden, and a large garage/workshop. The plot offers off-street parking for several cars and scope to extend to the side or rear subject to planning permission.
The layout suits families seeking proximity to highly regarded local schools, including Rochester Grammar and Sir Joseph Williamson’s Mathematical School. The rear garden has a raised terrace, lawn, trees, three sheds and two summer houses — good for children, entertaining, or hobby storage. The garage/workshop (22'9" x 11'11") provides home-working potential or conversion opportunity (permissions required).
Buyers should note material considerations: the property sits in an area with very high recorded crime and overall area deprivation. The house is of solid brick construction likely without cavity wall insulation, and there is a single family bathroom. Any extension or conversion would need the relevant planning approvals and checks on structural or insulation upgrades.
Overall this is a traditional, well-maintained 1930s semi on a decent plot, offered with no onward chain and expansion potential. It will appeal most to families wanting school catchment and parking space, and to buyers prepared to assess insulation and security improvements.
