Ever wondered what it would be like to live inside the walls of Chatham’s Historic Dockyard?

For the first time in 25 years, this Grade I-listed Georgian townhouse located in the heart of the fascinating maritime attraction is up for sale.

On the market for a cool £1.5 million, the grand six-bedroom house puts residents right in the middle of the dockyard’s Conservation Area.

This part of the tourist attraction is believed to be the most complete dockyard remaining from the Age of Sail - a period known as the years from the Battle of Lepanto in 1571 to the development of steam-powered warships in the 1800s - and is where Lord Nelson’s HMS Victory was designed and built.

Its rich maritime history has led to the Dockyard becoming one of Medway’s most-visited landmarks and now includes restored buildings, ropemakers, museums and local businesses.

The property sits within an eye-catching row of 12 Georgian terrace houses dating back to around 1720 named Officers Terrace after the officers of the Royal Naval Dockyard who once lived there.

This particular house sits at the end of the row and is thought to have been home to the Master Attendant due to its large size of more than 7,300 sq ft.

There are plenty of period features that remain inside the property, including the high ceilings, fireplaces, exposed wooden flooring and the barrel-vaulted cellar.

The house boasts six bedrooms, including a guest suite with its own sitting room, three sizeable bathrooms and a kitchen with a bespoke breakfast table made from sycamore.

There are also two stunning reception rooms across the upper ground floor, including the drawing room with views of the River Medway and the dining room with its Wessex bathstone fireplace.

When it comes to outdoor space, aside from the beautiful Dockyard surrounding the property, there is a private south-easterly-facing courtyard, a secluded walled garden influenced by 18th century design and a glazed potting shed.

The Dockyard and its properties are situated on the waterfront with fantastic views of the river.

Chatham town centre, with its shopping centre and train links to London, and the charming town of Rochester can both be reached within 10 minutes in the car.
