Summary - 28 CASTLE STREET CANTERBURY CT1 2PT
1 bed 1 bath Hotel
Rare central freehold investment with parking and private walled garden.
Freehold historic hotel with monument/listed status
Castle House Hotel is a rare freehold opportunity in the heart of Canterbury, occupying a Georgian/Victorian historic building partly incorporating the Norman city walls. The property includes 15 ensuite letting rooms across the main house, coach house and chalet, a cosy bar, private walled garden and valuable off‑street parking — a scarce asset in the city centre.
This is an investor‑focused acquisition with immediate trading potential: rooms are ensuite and furnished, fixtures and fittings are included, and the business currently operates as a fully staff‑run hotel. Its central location places guests a short walk from the Cathedral, theatre, station and the city’s restaurants and nightlife, supporting steady leisure and short‑break demand.
Important considerations: the building is listed/monument status, which will restrict alterations and can complicate refurbishment or extension. The local area records very high crime levels, which may affect insurance costs and management practices. The property will benefit from refurbishment and active management to optimise rates, occupancies and additional revenue streams.
For a buyer comfortable working with heritage constraints, Castle House offers scale (large plot, coach house and annex), strong central demand drivers and immediate cash‑flow potential. Budget for listed‑building consenting, targeted upgrades and enhanced security measures to maximise the asset’s value.
