Renovating original Georgian fireplaces and cornices at imposing Chase House has become something of a labour of love.

The Grade II listed house has had many lives, since it was first built. Once home to a wartime broadcasting station, it has also housed the offices of a taxi firm and was once the premises of an estate agent.

Now on the market, the five-bedroom home has recently been painstakingly restored. Doors and windows have been renovated as well as the fireplaces and ornate ceiling cornices.

A 21ft drawing room has a marble fireplace and there is a separate sitting room and dining room.

The kitchen/breakfast room has a range cooker, twin butler style sinks and wooden drainer. There is a separate utility room. There are unusual bay windows on the ground and first floor and the house still has some scope for finishing to personal taste.

Chase House has a back garden and off-road parking and could not be more convenient for commuting, with the station just a very short walk across the road.

The town centre and amenities are also within easy reach.

Faversham is about two minutes drive from the M2 and has a mainline station with regular commuter services to London (Victoria/Cannon Street and St Pancras HS1), Canterbury and the coast, making it easily accessible.
