Greyfox are thrilled to offer to the market for the first time in over 30 years this magnificent grade II listed, 8 bedroom semi detached residence in the heart of Rochester. Brimming with history, you can't help but fall in love with this unique property. Built in 1701, this property was originally an annexe for next door but over the years the home has taken many different forms.
Upon entering, you are greeted with a grand entrance way and to the right you will find the large front room. Continuing to the rear, you will find a downstairs bathroom, large separate dining and conservatory area, the kitchen, utility room and second conservatory.
Hidden away in the kitchen, you will find a secret passage way which goes behind the walls. Continuing down the passage way, you will find the stairs to the basement. This is where the boiler is located. Many years ago the basement led to tunnels underground which went down to the river. This is where smugglers would bring goods up through the house.
Heading into the garden, you will find yourself in a secluded paradise with beautiful trees and plants. Towards the rear of the garden, you have magnificent views over the river Medway.
Leading upstairs you will find 8 bedrooms, all of which are doubles. There is also a secondary kitchen and 2 family bathrooms, one of which has fantastic views over the Castle.
If you are looking for a large home, bursting with history, character and in an excellent location for shops, schools and transport, look no further

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on February 16, 2022
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on February 16, 2022
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
