About this home
FOLKESTONE ROAD, DOVER – DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY An exciting opportunity to acquire an approximately 0.83-acre development site on Folkestone Road, Dover, with Reserved Matters permission granted for four detached homes. This is more than simply a parcel of land with development potential. A significant part of the planning journey has already been undertaken, with Dover District Council granting Reserved Matters under application 25/01241 for the scale, appearance, layout and landscaping of four dwellings, pursuant to outline application 21/01710. THE VISION The approved scheme has been thoughtfully designed to create a distinctive collection of four detached homes within an attractive elevated setting. Contemporary architectural detailing combines with traditional materials, with the proposed development incorporating private outside space, parking and garages together with a considered landscaping scheme. The result is an opportunity to create a small and individual development of just four homes, rather than a high-density scheme. THE OPPORTUNITY For developers, builders and investors, Folkestone Road offers the opportunity to take forward an already-designed residential scheme on approximately 0.83 acres. The architectural design, layout and landscaping have already formed part of the Reserved Matters approval, allowing prospective purchasers to clearly see the vision for the completed development. The approved scheme includes provision for vehicle parking and garages, while landscaping forms an integral part of the overall design. PLANNING Reserved Matters permission was formally granted by Dover District Council on 12 February 2026 under application 25/01241, pursuant to outline application 21/01710. Full planning documentation can be obtained from Dover District Council using: 25/01241 – Reserved Matters 21/01710 – Outline Permission The permission is subject to conditions and prospective purchasers should review the full decision notice and approved plans and satisfy themselves regarding all planning, technical and development matters prior to purchase. The conditions include requirements relating to materials, parking, accessibility, water efficiency and landscaping. LOCATION Situated on Folkestone Road on the outskirts of Dover, the site combines an attractive setting with convenient access to the town and wider East Kent. The elevated nature of the site, together with the proposed contemporary homes, gardens, parking and landscaping, provides the ingredients for a particularly appealing completed development. A DEVELOPMENT WITH A VISION What makes this opportunity particularly compelling is that prospective purchasers don't simply have to imagine what could be possible. The vision is already there — four detached homes, approximately 0.83 acres and Reserved Matters permission granted. An exciting opportunity to take an approved vision and turn it into four exceptional new homes. CGI imagery is for illustrative purposes only.
