Key Features
This substantial period property currently arranged as five flats, (four vacant and one let), is situated close to the junction with Maison Dieu Road and Castle Street with the harbour, seafront and the new St. James' development and town centre all within close proximity.
Planning
Planning Permission was granted by Dover District Council under ref: DOV/18/00455, dated 3 August 2018, for the conversion of the ground, first and second floor into three self-contained flats. The plans show the basement and third floor as existing flats. Listed Building Consent was also granted under ref: DOV/18/00456, dated 27 September 2018.
However, Building Regulations have not been approved for the conversion and the Receivers have commissioned a building regulation compliance survey report which will be available on the Clive Emson website for indicative purposes only, with no third-party liability accepted.
A copy of the Planning Permission and accompanying documents may be downloaded from the Dover District Council website, dover.gov.uk. Tel: 01304 872486.
