Description

Located in the historic port town of Dover, The Castle Inn presents a significant opportunity for renovation and investment. This three-storey Grade II listed public house, dating back to 1789, is strategically positioned on Russell Street adjacent to the bustling St James Retail and Leisure Park, ensuring consistent foot traffic from both pedestrians and vehicles. The area has seen recent growth due to an influx of workers, making this property ideally located for future development. Currently presented in a shell condition, the interior includes a bar with original stripped wood flooring and a log burner, various restroom facilities, and a kitchen. There are also multiple bedrooms across all floors, including several en suite options which can be revamped to create attractive accommodation offerings. The external space features a yard that could be enhanced for additional use or outdoor dining. With mains services already connected and proximity to transport links such as Dover Priory railway station providing quick access to London, this property has great potential to be transformed into a thriving hospitality venue or multi-occupancy residential unit. The absence of an associated Premises Licence provides flexibility for new owners to explore various operational concepts without pre-existing constraints.
