Set over three floors in the heart of historic Rochester, this Victorian mid-terrace offers practical town-centre living with period character. The property provides two bedrooms, a living room with exposed brick and fireplace, and an attic-style top floor that brings light and usable space. Double glazing and gas central heating are already in place, making it largely move-in ready while retaining scope for updating.
Its location is a major draw: minutes from Rochester High Street, shops, cafés, and the mainline station with fast services to London. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern working from home, while nearby well-regarded schools make the house suitable for small families or professional couples. On-street parking and a compact, low-maintenance garden suit city living.
Buyers should note some constraints. The house has a narrow frontage and a small plot, so outdoor amenity is limited. The loft/attic bedroom has restricted head height under the eaves, and the solid brick walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation. Crime in the area is above average — important to consider for residents or lettings. There is clear scope to add value through cosmetic updating to kitchen and bathroom fittings.
Overall this freehold terraced townhouse suits first-time buyers seeking central convenience or investors targeting the local rental market. It balances character and commuter convenience with modest refurbishment potential for capital uplift.
