Greenleaf Property Services are delighted to present this attractive bay-fronted semi-detached house to the market, with vacant possession and no onward chain, on the ever-popular and highly sought-after City Way, Rochester. Bursting with potential and available for the first time in nearly 50 years, this previously much loved family home boasts three bedrooms, lounge, separate dining room with patio doors out to the conservatory/garden room, and great size established gardens front and rear. Whilst the property does require modernisation throughout, further benefits include a garage and off road parking to the rear, recently updated windows and boiler, and the potential to further extend into the loft and to the rear of property, subject to usual permissions and the new owner's wishes. Interest is sure to be strong in this enviably located family home with so much potential, we therefore recommend viewing at your earliest convenience to avoid disappointment.
The layout briefly consists of: Entrance porch into hallway giving access to lounge, dining room through to conservatory/garden room, and kitchen also through to conservatory/garden room; The upstairs landing gives access to three bedrooms, family bathroom and loft. The garden is accessed a few steps down from the conservatory/garden room, and there is also spacious side access from from the front of the house.
Located within walking distance of highly regarded private and state schools for all age groups, and all local amenities, A2/M2/M20 road links are a short drive away. The nearby historic High Street offers a range of restaurants, cafes, independent shops, as well as the popular cathedral and Norman castle. For those commuting to London, there is a fast train service to London St Pancras in approx 40 minutes from nearby Rochester and Chatham stations.
