Set within a sought-after Rochester location, this three-bedroom semi-detached home offers the kind of space, practicality and outdoor lifestyle that makes family living feel easy. Positioned on a generous corner plot, the property enjoys an impressive amount of frontage, with a driveway providing parking for multiple vehicles and a large front garden that gives the home a lovely sense of openness from the moment you arrive.
Step inside through the entrance porch and the layout immediately feels well considered. To the right, the lounge runs from front to back, creating a wonderfully sociable living space with plenty of room for relaxed evenings, family time and entertaining. French doors open directly onto the rear garden, allowing the room to connect beautifully with the outside space, especially during the warmer months when the doors can be opened and the garden becomes an extension of the home.
The separate dining room sits to the left of the hallway and offers a comfortable space for everyday meals, homework, hosting and Sunday lunches. It links conveniently with the kitchen to the rear, where modern grey cabinetry, marble-effect worktops and a striking blue splashback create a smart, practical finish. The kitchen offers good storage, integrated cooking appliances and direct access out to the garden, making it ideal for busy day-to-day life.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three well-proportioned bedrooms. The two largest bedrooms offer excellent usable space, while the third bedroom is a comfortable single room that would work well as a child’s bedroom, nursery, dressing room or home office. The family shower room has a fresh, contemporary feel, with full-height tiling, a walk-in shower enclosure, vanity storage and a chrome heated towel rail.
Outside is where this home truly comes into its own. The rear garden measures approximately 45ft and is south-facing, enjoying sunshine throughout the day. It is a fantastic space for children to play, summer barbecues, gardening, pets or simply sitting out with a morning coffee and making the most of the privacy and space. With gardens to both the front and rear, plus the benefit of the corner plot, the property feels more spacious than many homes of its style.
The location is another major part of the appeal. Rochester is loved for its historic high street, independent shops, cafés, restaurants, riverside walks and landmark cathedral and castle, while the high-speed station is approximately 1.3 miles away, making it a strong choice for commuters. The property is also ideally placed for local school catchment areas, including access to popular grammar school options, making it especially attractive to families planning for the future.
With generous gardens, off-road parking for multiple vehicles, three bedrooms, separate reception spaces and a highly desirable Rochester setting, this is a home with plenty to offer now and exciting potential for years to come.

What the owners say...
"We bought the house 36 years ago because it was close to one set of parents that needed our help. We stayed so long because it's such a great area, with lots of top schools. There's a couple of green spaces for dog walking and kids to play. And having good friendly neighbours is a big bonus. The reason we want to move is to be closer to family"
