Chatham's former Theatre Royal transformed into luxury apartments as two-bedroom flat goes up for sale

A former Victorian theatre has been transformed into luxury apartments.

Buyers will have the chance to own a piece of theatrical history with the two-bedroom and one-bedroom apartments at the old Theatre Royal building in Chatham.

The 1890s auditorium has been stripped out and converted and includes original features and touches to remind the owners of the building's charming past life.

Open plan kitchens and living spaces feature a mezzanine floor above in one of the conversions and the master bedroom has an en-suite.

Original cornices, stained glass windows and staircases feature throughout the renovation of the three flats which are priced at about £400,000.

The central staircase is the centrepiece for one of the two-bedroom properties which runs up through the building.

Agents Haart Medway say the design's "cohesion between modern luxury and generations of character is magnificent".

Double height ceilings feature in some rooms and oversized windows give extensive light throughout the property.

There is a large bathroom with huge shower and separate bath as well as entrance lobby and study along the two bedrooms in the apartment with the mezzanine floor.

Meanwhile, the split levels on the other two-bedroom offers a spacious flat across multiple floors.

The one-bedroom apartment in the former Theatre Royal is priced at £300,000. The second two-bedroom flat is priced on application.

The old theatre is located at the corner of the High Street and Manor Road.
