No Onward Chain. Fabulous location, hidden behind the Moat wall opposite Rochester Castle and facing toward Rochester Cathedral, is this three double bedroomed detached cottage built in 2006. The cottage is set over three levels, with a large open plan living/dining/kitchen, extensive fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, bathroom and shower room with utility area. The entrance gate in the Moat wall leads into a very private split level paved courtyard garden with steps down and path leading through to a further courtyard with pergola and access to the parking space. This is a rare opportunity to own a home in the heart of Rochester with outstanding views of the Castle and Cathedral. Only minutes from the High Street with its independent shops, cafes and restaurants. Rochester is well known for its association with Charles Dickens and hosts a variety of cultural festivals during the year, such as Sweeps, Dickensian Christmas and Castle gardens concerts. The attractive High Street is lined with a selection of period buildings dating from Georgian and Victorian times. There are a range of schools, private and state, including Kings School, Rochester Girls Grammar School and the Mathematical school all within walking distance. The mainline station is within a few minutes' walk and has excellent services to London Cannon Street, Charing Cross, Victoria and a hi-speed service to Ebbsfleet (18min), Stratford and St Pancras (38 min). There are also excellent road links via the A2, M2, M20 and M25 to Maidstone, Canterbury, London, Bluewater shopping centre, Ebbsfleet International Station and Gatwick Airport.
