Description
This truly exceptional four double bedroom home combines refined luxury with outstanding energy performance, offering a rare opportunity to own one of the most environmentally advanced properties in a prime Rochester location.
Set within a peaceful and highly sought-after private close off Priestfields, this beautifully bungalow occupies an impressive 2,000 sqm plot. Behind its elegant exterior lies a home designed for the future where sustainability, comfort and cutting edge technology work in perfect harmony.
Industry-Leading Energy Efficiency
Awarded an outstanding EPC A rating, the property delivers exceptional energy performance rarely found in residential homes. A substantial PV solar array generating approximately 13,000 kWh per annum, combined with a powerful 27 kWh battery storage system, allows for remarkable self-sufficiency including off-grid capability during power outages.
Heating and cooling are managed by an advanced air source heat pump, wet underfloor heating throughout, and a 3-port air conditioning system serving the principal bedrooms. Each room benefits from individually adjustable underfloor heating, ensuring optimal comfort with maximum efficiency. Energy-efficient adjustable downlights further enhance performance while reducing running costs.
This is a home designed not only to minimise environmental impact, but to significantly reduce long-term energy expenditure.
Elegant, Future-Proof Living
The 125 sqm of meticulously remodelled living space has been finished to an exceptional standard, with planning permission already granted to extend to five bedrooms and approximately 175 sqm offering exciting potential for further expansion.
Two recently installed luxury bathrooms provide spa-quality indulgence, featuring a freestanding bath, walk-in shower with programmable digital controls, and high end tiling.
High-specification Amtico flooring flows throughout, while enhanced soundproofing in the principal and second bedrooms ensures privacy and tranquillity.
Seamless Indoor–Outdoor Living
Externally, 264 sqm of south-west facing patio connects effortlessly to approximately 1,600 sqm of wooded gardens. Espaliered fruit trees, rambler roses and a pergola create a beautifully landscaped setting ideal for entertaining or peaceful retreat.
Full wheelchair accessibility extends throughout the bungalow, garages, carport, driveway and patio delivering truly inclusive, step-free living.
