A rare, substantial period property in the heart of Folkestone, this former pub has been sensitively renovated while keeping original character. Spread over five floors plus cellar, the house offers flexible living with three reception rooms, three double bedrooms and two attic rooms ideal for guests, hobby space or home offices.
The home combines high ceilings, exposed beams and open fireplaces with modern comforts such as double glazing, mains gas central heating and recent refurbishment throughout. The private rear courtyard provides an outdoor spot for morning coffee or small-scale entertaining, while ample built-in storage and large cellar rooms add practical space uncommon for the area.
Important considerations: the plot is compact with a small courtyard rather than a large garden, and there is only one main bathroom serving the house. The property sits in an area recorded as very deprived with very high local crime levels; buyers should factor local context and security measures into plans.
This is a standout opportunity for a large family seeking coastal living within walking distance of Folkestone Harbour Arm, shops and transport links, or for buyers looking for a high-profile period home with versatile spaces. Verify measurements, consents for past conversion works and tenure details as part of any offer.
