Substantial coastal-edge site with local plan allocation for small housing scheme.
Approximately 4.55 acres (1.84 ha) level arable field
Allocated in Dover Local Plan (STM003) — indicative ~40 dwellings
About ¾ mile from the sea; distant coastal/harbour aspect
Immediate roadside frontage to Reach Road with vehicular access
Adjacent to existing residential gardens and holiday chalets
Tenure unknown; land sale and planning required for redevelopment
Required technical work: ground investigation and landscape buffers
Slow broadband and average mobile signal; local station within 2 miles
Set on approximately 4.55 acres (1.84 ha) just southwest of St. Margaret’s-at-Cliffe village, this level arable field offers a substantial development footprint in a semi-coastal, rural setting. The parcel sits about ¾ mile from the sea with distant maritime/harbour aspects and immediate frontage to Reach Road, providing straightforward vehicular access and clear visibility to neighbouring detached and semi‑detached homes.
The site is allocated in the Dover District Local Plan (reference STM003) with an indicative capacity of about 40 dwellings, making it suitable for a small-scale residential scheme subject to planning. Local connections are good: Dover town centre is roughly five miles away and Martin Mill station is within two miles. Popular local schools — including an Outstanding-rated primary — and village amenities are within easy reach, supporting family-focused housing proposals.
Practical considerations are clear and should be factored into any offer. Tenure is currently unknown and the sale is for land only; prospective buyers must secure planning permission and complete required technical work — including ground investigation, a flood risk statement (noting site is shown with no flood risk), and landscape buffer and pedestrian connectivity proposals. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal is average, which may require mitigation for modern housing expectations.
This is a rare, sizable parcel in an affluent rural-coastal fringe with defined development potential. It will suit developers or investors who can manage planning submission and technical site preparation to realise a medium-sized residential scheme.
