Description

This mid-terrace, bay-fronted property offers a unique investment opportunity in Dover Road, located just a short walk from the vibrant Tontine Street and the picturesque harbour area. Currently divided into two maisonettes with a shared entrance, the lower unit (83A Dover Road) is available with vacant possession, while the upper maisonette has been sold on a long lease. The lower flat comprises a living room with a charming bay window, a kitchen/dining area, and two bedrooms on the lower ground floor, making it an ideal candidate for refurbishment to maximize its rental potential. Although it boasts double-glazed windows and gas central heating via radiators, significant upgrades are required for full modernisation. The private rear garden adds value and charm, providing an outdoor space for future tenants or owners. This property is positioned near various local amenities including the Creative Quarter and transport links such as Folkestone West & Central Stations, enhancing its appeal to renters and buyers alike. Renovation here could significantly increase yield potential.
