Description
Set within nearly a half-acre plot. Double garage with an inspection pit. Excellent road & rail networks. Highly regarded schooling options.
Fine and Country are pleased to present Loningarth, an exceptional family residence offering over 3,000 square feet of versatile living space, perfectly situated on the fringes of Rochester’s historic town centre.
This impressive home is bathed in natural light and exudes a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Spanning three levels, it’s ideal for larger families, multigenerational living or for those considering an Air BnB venture.
The ground floor features a generously sized fitted kitchen and breakfast room, complemented by a separate utility room. The dining room opens directly to a charming rear garden, creating an ideal space for family meals and entertaining. The lounge exudes timeless charm with its exposed brick fireplace and log-burning stove, offering a cosy retreat.
Ascending to the first floor, you will find five well-proportioned double bedrooms, supported by two family bath/shower rooms, ensuring ample space for a growing family. The entire second floor is occupied by the expansive principal bedroom, which is further enhanced by a luxurious en-suite, providing a private sanctuary.
Adding to the home's versatility is a one-bedroom attached annexe. This space can seamlessly integrate with the main residence or serve as separate accommodation with its own private access. It features an open plan kitchen and living room, leading onto a conservatory, while a wet room serves the double bedroom.
Set within a nearly half-acre plot, Loningarth's mature gardens provide a lush oasis with sprawling lawns, mature shrubbery, and specimen trees forming the borders and creating privacy. A large stone terrace, adorned with a reclaimed Victorian veranda, offers the perfect space for al fresco dining and outdoor gatherings.
The property's practical amenities include a large driveway with sufficient space for numerous vehicles, and a double garage with an inspection pit, leading to a good-sized workshop, making it ideal for those with treasured cars or motorcycles. Several outbuildings provide additional storage and functionality.
Situated within Historic Rochester and just a stone's throw of its characterful High Street to take in its cafe culture, bars and highly popular restaurants, entertainment is but a short distance away. Artisan boutiques and unique independent shops make it popular to those looking for something different. Rochester Cathedral, the second oldest in England having been founded in 604AD, has been a place of worship for over 1400 years. The 12th century Norman castle is one of the best preserved in England and France and sits proudly over the river Medway and its marina, great for Sunday walks. The castle grounds regularly become a place of entertainment offering concerts and open-air cinema, something that comes highly recommended. One of the highlights is a proms style concert finished off with fireworks. Rochester is well known to have been the residence of Charles Dickens and the setting and influence to many of his characters and stories. For those looking for shopping, cinema, restaurants and bars all under one roof, Bluewater shopping centre is approximately 20 minutes distant.
Well regarded and popular independent schools are within easy reach including Kings School, Gads Hill and Cobham Hall.
Ideally located for the commuter, Rochester has a mainline train station that has recently been updated offering a fast service to London in as little as 20 minutes to Stratford International and direct trains to Victoria, Charing Cross, St Pancras and London Bridge. For those travelling by car easy access to the motorway network via the M2/A2 and M20 with direct links onto the M25. The whole Kent and Sussex coast is yours to explore within easy travelling distance. Easy airport choices include Stanstead, Gatwick and London City.
