Wear Bay Road, Folkestone

A Rare Opportunity on Wear Bay Road – One Bedroom End-of-Terrace with Stunning Sea Views & Huge Potential

Located on the ever-desirable Wear Bay Road, this one bedroom end-of-terrace home is a true gem with breathtaking, uninterrupted views across the English Channel. Offering an exciting development opportunity (subject to planning permission), this charming property has the scope to become a two or even three bedroom home, making it an ideal project for those looking to create their dream coastal retreat.

The property opens with a small porch leading into a welcoming hallway with a useful storage cupboard. The living room is bright and airy, with a beautiful bay window perfectly framing the lush green outside and the sea beyond.

Two generous built-in storage cupboards add functionality to this lovely space. From here, you step into a spacious kitchen/diner that offers ample room for entertaining and day-to-day living. Beyond, the conservatory provides additional living space, opening out onto a low-maintenance rear garden, which is currently divided into two distinct sections – ideal for relaxing, dining or even further landscaping.

Upstairs, you’ll find a newly fitted shower room and a double bedroom with loft access.

The loft is already partially converted with a Velux roof window in place, hinting at the huge potential this home holds. Subject to planning, there is an excellent opportunity to extend to the rear and above the kitchen, as well as to create a dormer loft conversion – all of which could dramatically increase both the space and value of the home. With direct sea views from the upper floors, the views are nothing short of spectacular.

To the front of the property, there is scope to create off-road parking (subject to the necessary consents), a highly desirable feature in this popular coastal location. In addition, a garage en bloc to the rear of the property provides secure storage or parking, adding further practicality and appeal to this fantastic home.

Although the property does require modernisation throughout, it sits in a postcode where the average house price exceeds £560,000, offering incredible value and an exciting blank canvas for the right buyer.

This is a chance to create a truly special home in one of Folkestone’s most sought-after seaside locations – moments from the clifftops, a short distance from the town centre and Folkestone’s buzzing Harbour Arm, and within easy reach of Folkestone East train station for fast connections to London.
