Description
This unique link-detached property offers a charming blend of history and modern comfort. Built as naval officers' quarters for Chatham Dockyard, the house boasts a rich past dating back to 1983. The current owners, the last naval family to reside here (a submarine commander!), purchased it from the MOD when the dockyard closed.
Over the past 40 years, they've lovingly restored the home with high-quality finishes. The master bedroom features a luxurious en-suite bathroom with a stunning Laufen washbasin, while the family bathroom offers both a shower and a bath.
Step outside and discover the delightful gardens. The front yard evokes a classic English country feel with its traditional plantings, while the rear boasts a relaxing deck with a hot tub and a convenient home office, perfect for working from home.
But the charm doesn't stop at the doorstep! Rainham itself is a vibrant community with excellent schools for all ages, a mainline railway station, and a bustling shopping precinct filled with shops and restaurants. A short drive takes you to Hempstead Valley Shopping Centre or the M2 motorway link, making it easy to explore the surrounding area.
For those seeking nature, the nearby Riverside Country Park offers scenic walks, a play area, and a nature reserve – perfect for family outings.
This exceptional property truly has something for everyone. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of history and experience the best of Rainham living. Contact us today to arrange a viewing!
