3 bed detached house for sale

Old Watling Street, Rochester ME2

Set behind private gates on Old Watling Street, Mulberry Cottage is a three/four-bedroom detached home surrounded by mature gardens and far-reaching countryside views. Offered with no onward chain, it provides character, privacy and flexible accommodation across three levels, with generous parking and two garages.

At its heart is a welcoming kitchen with exposed beams, terracotta flooring and a traditional aga, opening into a bright garden room. A separate dining room is ideal for family meals and entertaining, while four working log burners create warmth and atmosphere throughout.

The layout could be enjoyed in several ways. The entrance-level living room could potentially serve as a ground-floor fourth bedroom, subject to suitability and any necessary consents or safety requirements. This would allow the exceptional lower-level living room, with exposed timbers and an impressive fireplace, to become the principal reception room - perfect for relaxed evenings, entertaining or quiet retreat.

Upstairs are three individual bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite, together with a family bathroom. Several rooms enjoy beautiful views across the surrounding Kent countryside.

Outside, the gated entrance creates a wonderful sense of arrival. Established gardens, seating areas, a courtyard, garden room and two garages provide space for hobbies, classic cars, storage or workshop use.

The Three Crutches pub is within a short walk, with further amenities in Higham, Strood and historic Rochester. Nearby schools include Bligh Primary School, Leigh Academy Strood, Gad's Hill School, Cobham Hall and Abbey Court School. Cuxton, Higham and Strood stations are approximately two miles away, while the A2/M2, A289 and Medway road network provide convenient links towards London and across Kent.

Mulberry Cottage is a private, character-filled home with the space and versatility to adapt to its next owners.
