This top-floor two-bedroom apartment sits within a gated development moments from Rochester High Street and the mainline station. The open-plan living area is bright and efficiently laid out, with an integrated kitchen that suits first-time buyers or commuting professionals seeking low-maintenance central living.
The development offers secure entry, electronic gates and an allocated undercroft carport — valuable in this central location. With 107 years remaining on the lease and a below-average service charge (£800pa) plus modest ground rent (£200pa), the running costs are straightforward and predictable.
Be clear about the compromises: the property is compact at approximately 485 sq ft, so space is best suited to those seeking efficient rather than expansive accommodation. Local crime statistics are very high; while the gated setting and intercom add security, prospective buyers should factor this into their decision.
Constructed in the early 2000s with double glazing and mains gas heating, the flat is modern in style and ready to occupy or rent out. Broadband speeds are average. Nearby good and outstanding schools, abundant amenities and fast rail links to London strengthen both owner-occupier and investor appeal. Viewing is recommended to judge fit and layout for your needs.
