Description

An approximately 0.83-acre site on Folkestone Road, Dover, with Reserved Matters approval for a scheme of four detached homes. Dover District Council granted approval under application 25/01241, following outline permission 21/01710. The approved plans set out the homes' scale, appearance, layout and landscaping, including private outdoor areas, parking and garages. The proposed design combines contemporary elements with traditional materials and includes a landscaped setting. The site is elevated and lies on the outskirts of Dover, with access to local transport links and the town. The planning consent is subject to conditions, including requirements concerning materials, parking, accessibility, water efficiency and landscaping. Buyers should review the decision notice and approved plans and check planning, technical, service and development matters before proceeding.

38out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This is a different kind of WHOTS project: an approximately 0.83-acre site with Reserved Matters approval for four detached homes, and a proposed layout that includes parking, garages and landscaping. The planning work gives a clear scheme to assess and potentially take forward, but the submitted images do not establish the site’s current physical condition.

Key opportunities

  • Take forward the approved scheme for four detached homes on approximately 0.83 acres.
  • Build around the proposed individual-home layout, with parking, garages and landscaped areas.
  • Review the granted Reserved Matters approval and existing design work as a starting point for assessing delivery.

Key risks

  • The access is identified as unadopted; establish its status and any implications for delivery.
  • Check the decision notice, approved plans, conditions and technical feasibility before relying on the permission.
  • Floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged.
