An elegant Grade II Listed Queen Anne townhouse arranged over three levels, featuring charming period details, versatile accommodation, two reception rooms, a chambered cellar with wine store, and a principal bedroom with en-suite. Enjoying breathtaking views of Rochester Castle, the property is ideally positioned within a prestigious school catchment area and offers excellent commuter links. Fine & Country are delighted to present The Friars, a substantial and highly distinctive townhouse occupying a superb position in the heart of historic Rochester, combining generous and versatile accommodation with Castle views, garage and parking, and exceptional connections to London. Dating from 1709, this Grade II Listed Queen Anne house retains a remarkable wealth of period character. Wood-panelled rooms, sash windows with bespoke shutters and an impressive collection of fireplaces sit alongside beautifully proportioned rooms to create a home of considerable warmth and individuality. The property occupies an attractive position overlooking mature greenery towards Rochester Castle and Cathedral. An impressive entrance hall with polished oak flooring and a sweeping staircase immediately establishes the scale and character of the house. The principal reception rooms flow naturally from one another, with the drawing room featuring rich wood panelling, original sash windows and shutters and a bespoke marble open fireplace. The adjoining dining room provides an equally impressive entertaining space, centred around a carved Victorian fireplace with a Chesney wood-burning stove. The kitchen/breakfast room provides practical everyday living space with an excellent range of cabinetry and integrated appliances and connects conveniently with the adjoining utility room and cloakroom. The first floor continues the generous proportions of the ground floor. The principal bedroom enjoys elevated views towards Rochester Castle and incorporates a walk-in wardrobe and en suite shower room. A further room, currently used as a home office, features an attractive oriel window and fitted bookshelves, while another beautifully proportioned bedroom is presently arranged as an additional sitting room. The family bathroom retains considerable period character, including a cast-iron fireplace, and offers scope for sympathetic updating to suit individual taste. Two further generous double bedrooms occupy the second floor, both enjoying far-reaching rooftop and Castle views and providing excellent accommodation for family, guests or flexible home working. Below the principal accommodation is an extensive multi-chamber cellar with wine store. Exposed brickwork, traditional brick and cobbled flooring, and two leaded stained-glass windows give the space a strong sense of the house's history, while providing exceptionally useful storage and ancillary space. Outside
To the front, a paved terrace enclosed by iron railings and planting provides useful private outdoor space overlooking the green. To the rear is a small paved service courtyard, providing light to the kitchen and practical ancillary space for everyday use. A tandem garage provides secure covered parking, complemented by two additional allocated parking spaces immediately outside the property - a particularly valuable feature for a historic town-centre home. Location & London Connections
The Friars occupies one of Rochester's most attractive historic settings, just moments from the characterful High Street and its independent shops, cafés, restaurants and bars. An exceptional choice of green spaces is also within easy walking distance, including the Castle grounds, The Vines, Esplanade Gardens and Churchfields, providing a variety of places for walking, recreation and enjoying the outdoors without the upkeep of a large private garden. Rochester station is approximately a seven-minute walk from the house, with the route taking you past Rochester Castle and Cathedral and past the historic High Street. From there, rail connections are unusually comprehensive, with direct services to London St Pancras International, Stratford International, Victoria, London Bridge, Blackfriars and Cannon Street. High-speed services reach St Pancras in approximately 35 minutes, making central London readily accessible for commuting and leisure. Car-free weekend escapes are equally easy, with direct services from Rochester to the Kent coast including Whitstable, Herne Bay, Margate, Broadstairs and Ramsgate.
Road connections are also excellent, with convenient access to the A2, M2 and M20, providing straightforward links across Kent, towards London and to the wider motorway network. The area is also exceptionally well served for education, with highly regarded grammar and independent schools including King's School Rochester, Rochester Grammar School and Sir Joseph Williamson's Mathematical School. A Rare Combination
The Friars offers an unusual combination: the scale and architectural character of a significant period house, the convenience and walkability of historic Rochester, garage and additional parking, easy access to an exceptional choice of green spaces, and fast rail connections to central London.
