Summary - Park Avenue, Dover, CT16 CT16 1HD
6 bed 2 bath Detached
Large period family home with extensive garden, garage and strong transport links.
Six double bedrooms and large reception rooms
A substantial Victorian detached house on Park Avenue, offered chain free and arranged over multiple floors — ideal for a large family seeking period character and space. The property keeps many original features (tudor revival timber framing, arched balcony, feature fireplaces) and provides extensive reception rooms, six bedrooms and large cellars that offer versatile storage or conversion potential.
Outside, the plot is generous with a well-tended mature garden, terrace areas, driveway and a remote double garage. Transport links are strong: Priory main-line station, fast trains to London, and easy access to A2/M2 routes are all within easy reach. Local schools include highly rated grammar and independent options, making this attractive for families prioritising education.
Buyers should be aware of material negatives: the house is solid-brick Victorian construction with little inherent wall insulation and an Energy Rating of D (56), so heating costs may be higher. Although many windows have secondary glazing, much of the property will benefit from modernisation and improved insulation. There are just two bathrooms for six bedrooms, and council tax is band G (quite expensive). The area records higher crime and local deprivation measures; prospective purchasers should factor these into their plans.
Overall this is a rare, character-filled family home with significant upside for refurbishment, extension or cellar conversion, balanced against running costs and modernisation work.
