About this home

An exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire a potential development site in a prime sea facing position on the seaward side of Joy Lane, one of Whitstable's most desirable roads. The site is within walking distance of the beach and accessible to the town centre, highly regarded schools, bus routes and Whitstable station (1.3 miles).

The site, which enjoys a frontage of approximately 62ft (19m) to Joy Lane and an overall depth in the region of 167ft (51m), offers considerable scope for re-development with one or more new dwellings (subject to all necessary consents and approvals being obtained), which would benefit from magnificent views of the sea and across Whitstable bay. Inspiration can be drawn from recent developments in the immediate vicinity.

Interested parties are advised to make their own enquiries relating to planning matters via Canterbury City Council;
