Description
Offered by Elgars, this three-bedroom detached house dates from 1930 and is described as retaining period features alongside modern facilities. The ground floor includes a hall, separate sitting and dining rooms, and a kitchen with a back porch. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a bathroom. The accommodation includes fireplaces, sash windows and original-style internal doors.
A detached timber-framed, weatherboarded annexe provides a lounge/diner with kitchenette, a bedroom and a shower room, with a mezzanine storage area. The main house and annexe stand on a plot of about 0.21 acres, with lawn, mature planting, a paved patio and parking for at least four cars, plus space beside the annexe.
Planning consent is stated to have been granted by Dover District Council for ground- and first-floor extensions adding approximately 136 square metres, including a fourth bedroom. The property therefore combines existing ancillary accommodation with a consented extension scheme; planning details and the status of the consent should be checked.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
55out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a characterful 1930s detached house with a substantial, established garden, parking, a detached annexe and a separate timber outbuilding. The main-house rooms look clean and usable, while the farmhouse-style kitchen and other finishes offer scope for cosmetic updating; the annexe provides additional accommodation, with its lawful use and compliance worth checking. The renovation range is £5,500–£18,000, and the listing also states that consent has been granted for extensions adding approximately 136 sq m, including a fourth bedroom.
The overall score is 55/100 (grade D), so this is a weaker opportunity rather than a clear-cut value buy. Floor area is missing, which means value against local £/sq ft cannot yet be judged; the available figures also do not establish the residual value after works. Confirm the measured area and assess the extension and annexe details before judging the numbers.
Key opportunities
- Update the dated farmhouse-style kitchen and decorative finishes while retaining the house’s period character.
- Explore the stated consent for approximately 136 sq m of ground- and first-floor extensions, including a fourth bedroom.
- Make use of the detached annexe, established garden and separate timber outbuilding, subject to checking the annexe’s lawful use and compliance.
