Description

This spacious nine-bedroom mid-terrace house presents a unique investment opportunity, currently operating as a self-service guest house with a notable annual turnover. Located in the heart of the town center, just opposite Dover Priory railway station, it is ideally positioned near local shops, cultural attractions such as the Museum and Dover Castle, as well as convenient access to the Ferry Port and Cruise Terminal. The property spans lower ground and three levels above, featuring eight guest rooms equipped with essential amenities including 32" LED TVs, fridges, and en-suite bathrooms. Additionally, there is an owner’s flat comprising a lounge, kitchen/diner, bedroom, and en-suite facilities. While the property is functional for its current use, there is significant renovation potential; past outlines for planning consent to develop residential properties on adjacent land indicate further possibilities. The good-sized rear garden includes a concrete storage shed and could enhance outdoor appeal with some landscaping. With careful refurbishment and modernization of facilities throughout, this property could be transformed into a more lucrative enterprise or converted into individual residential units.
