A unique opportunity to own a beautiful home on one of Dovers' prime roads and ready to be converted to its former glory as a family home

Property Oracle says ..

This six-bedroom, four-bathroom detached house on Castle Avenue in Dover, Kent presents a compelling opportunity. The location is undoubtedly one of its strongest assets, providing convenient access to Dover Priory station, highly-rated schools, and the historical landmark, Dover Castle. The exterior shows a charming property with features suggestive of a period property and is well-maintained.

Inside, the property presents a mixed picture. Some areas, notably the kitchen, appear to have been recently modernised with a contemporary navy and white colour scheme. However, other areas, such as some bedrooms, showcase dated interior design elements (wallpaper and carpets) that are likely to be a factor for many buyers, potentially needing updates to suit modern tastes. The overall aesthetic gives the impression that while it is habitable, it is somewhat dated and could greatly benefit from a fresh coat of paint, updated flooring and modern furnishings throughout.

The property has a garden, though images suggest the space could be better utilised. The garden is established and not overgrown, showing potential for further landscaping, and suggesting the buyer could add their own personal touch to it. There are steps down into different levels of the garden, suggestive of a potentially larger garden than is immediately apparent.

In summary, this property offers a good blend of location and potential. Buyers should factor in the modernisation needed internally to maximise the property’s overall value. The price appears to be at the middle to lower end of the market for this type of property and number of bedrooms in the area. Further investigation of the total square footage would provide a clearer picture. Those looking for a home in a convenient and well-regarded location with potential for enhancement will find this listing worth considering.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
