Rochester, a town of 24,000 people in the county of Kent, is technically a city; it even has Rochester Cathedral as its centrepiece. But unbelievably, its city status was accidentally stripped in 1998 due to an administrative error! Since then, the town has applied for its re-introduction, but as of yet still remains a town (with a cathedral!).
Charles Dickens was a famous resident of Rochester, and wrote many of his novels here. In fact, the town still plays host to Dickens fans each year as part of the Rochester Dickens Festival held in June. Rochester, along with Chatham and Gillingham, make up the Medway Towns conurbation. The town is very attractive, with plenty of places to visit including the Rochester Castle and Guildhall Museum. The shopping scene in Rochester offers a mix of some well-know and independent boutiques, with a range of art and antiques shops as well. Restaurants on offer include English, Indian, Chinese and Italian, and there are plenty of pubs to whet the appetite in before your meal too! With so many attractions, it is little wonder that so many people are looking for property for sale in Rochester.
Rochester properties
Rochester properties are more expensive than in other parts of the UK, owing to the fact that this is an attractive town situated in a popular county. A 3-bedroom end terrace will cost around £200,000, while something larger like a 5-bedroom, detached Victorian house will set you back about £625,000. But rest assured that affordable property can be found, and there is certainly something for every taste.
