Spectacular Sea Views & Tremendous Potential — First Floor Flat in The Gateway, Dover

Set within the iconic Gateway building, this first-floor flat presents a rare opportunity to enjoy uninterrupted views across the English Channel while offering the chance to transform the space into a truly stunning coastal home. The property does require updating throughout, but its generous proportions and scope for reconfiguration make it stand out from other flats in the block.

The accommodation follows the classic Gateway layout, with a welcoming hallway leading to all principal rooms. At the front of the flat, the spacious lounge/diner is perfectly positioned to capture the sweeping sea views, with large windows filling the room with natural light and creating an ever-changing backdrop. Benefiting a large balcony, framing the spectacular outlook and providing the perfect spot to enjoy the coastal setting. One of the bedrooms also benefits from the same outlook & an additional balcony, allowing the coast to be part of everyday life, while the second double bedroom is set quietly to the rear of the building.

The kitchen sits at the back of the flat and opens onto its own balcony, a feature that offers exceptional potential. Subject to permissions, this space could be enclosed to create a much larger kitchen or even a contemporary kitchen-dining area, adding both comfort and value to the property. Completing the layout is a family bathroom and a separate WC, as well as useful built-in storage.

A particular advantage of this property is that the service charge not only covers the upkeep of the building and communal facilities, but also includes both heating and hot water, offering real peace of mind and helping to keep running costs predictable.

What makes this flat truly special is the combination of its spectacular outlook, its potential to expand the kitchen, and the flexibility of a layout that provides a genuine blank canvas for modernisation. For those ready to invest in refurbishment and create a home tailored to their taste, this flat offers far more than most within The Gateway and could become a striking coastal retreat in one of Dover’s most iconic addresses.
