Description

Nestled in a tranquil cul-de-sac in Dover, this distinctive five-bedroom detached property comes with a self-contained one-bedroom annexe, presenting a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Once serving as the residence for the prison master, the home features an intriguing blend of character and ample space that can be reimagined to meet modern living standards. The property is conveniently located near town amenities and transport links, enhancing its appeal for future development. Upon entering, you're greeted by a bright entrance hall leading to a spacious lounge complete with a double-sided log burner that connects to an adjoining dining room—ideal for family gatherings. French doors from the lounge open into a sizable conservatory that provides views over the wrap-around garden, perfect for outdoor enjoyment. The property boasts a generous kitchen equipped with good cabinetry and worktop space that is well positioned between the dining area and annexe. Upstairs hosts four comfortable double bedrooms along with a family bathroom and an adaptable loft room, which could serve as an office or playroom. The independent annexe is another highlight of this property. Featuring its own entrance, it includes a double bedroom and lounge space that could easily accommodate guests or generate rental income. This versatility adds significant value to the property. Outside, ample parking is available with dedicated driveway space and a separate car park capable of housing several vehicles—an unusual asset within this locality. The additional land presents potential for further development (subject to planning permission), offering exciting possibilities for enhancement. This home not only provides room to grow but also lays the groundwork for future investments or expansions, making it suitable for families seeking both immediate comfort and long-term value growth.
