A fabulous investment opportunity to purchase this stunning, character building, which is divided into five apartments comprising one two- bedroom and four one-bedroom units. In addition, there is a lovely, two-bedroom detached Coach House.

The properties are in good general condition; however, some updating and redecoration may be required.

The main dwelling is of red brick with sash and bay windows and a tile hung façade with attractive portico door with lead canopy.
Internally, the property retains many of the original Victorian features. This striking period building was sympathetically refurbished in 2013.

The Coach House is a delightful, two-bedroom detached dwelling with private courtyard garden.
Construction is of red brick with a double-glazed casement window and composite entry door, under a tiled roof.

There is parking for up to three vehicles in the main courtyard of the building.

All units are currently rented and we understand they are due for a rent review.

Situation
Oaten Hill is located just off the Old Dover Road. It is within walking distance of Canterbury city centre, which offers an excellent shopping centre, a good choice of restaurants, bars, cafés, shops, and many cultural interests including the popular Marlowe Theatre.
Recreational facilities include championship cricket at the Spitfire St Lawrence Ground, rugby, swimming pool, leisure centre and golf courses. The River Stour offers interesting boats trips and lovely riverside walks.
There is a good choice of schools in both the state and private sectors, girls’ and boys’ grammar schools, and colleges and universities.

Transport links are also good, with the A2 linking into the M2, M20/M25 and other motorway networks.

Canterbury has two mainline railway stations, both within walking distance. Canterbury West operates the HS1 train service to London St Pancras in just under an hour.

The Port of Dover and Eurotunnel are within easy reach, providing services to the continent.

Agents note
We understand all units are currently freehold, but should they be sold individually, they will be offered with long leases, with the exception of the Coach House, which will remain freehold.

The vendors are offering a unique and rare opportunity to either purchase the units individually or as an investment package for the building of five apartments and one Coach House.

The courtyard provides parking for up to three cars.
