This one-bedroom first-floor flat combines period character with modern finishes, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a compact city base. High ceilings and large sash windows bring natural light into the living space, while the modern kitchen and shower room reduce immediate maintenance needs.
At approximately 460 sq ft, the layout is practical for single occupancy or a couple. The property benefits from mains gas central heating (boiler and radiators), excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for remote working or streaming. There is no reported flood risk, and the building’s Victorian façade provides attractive kerb appeal.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with around 93 years remaining, and the building’s solid brick construction likely has no cavity insulation, which could mean higher heating costs and future upgrade work. The local area is classified as very deprived with very high crime levels; buyers should consider safety, insurance and resale implications.
Nearby St James Park and Dover Harbour are within walking distance, offering green space and riverside amenities. For a first-time buyer who values character, modern fittings and good digital connectivity, this flat offers an affordable entry to the Dover market — provided you accept the leasehold status and neighbourhood challenges.
