Description
Spacious Three-Bedroom Home in Central Dover – Just Minutes from the Station
Miles & Barr are pleased to present this deceptively spacious three-bedroom property located on Percival Terrace, Dover — a convenient and central position ideal for commuters, families, or those looking for generous living space with scope to personalise.
Set over three levels, the home offers a flexible and well-thought-out layout. Upon entry, you are welcomed into a cosy lounge at the front of the property, with the main double bedroom positioned towards the rear, along with a modern family bathroom.
Head downstairs to discover a fantastic open-plan kitchen/diner — a real highlight of the home. The vendor has recently opened up this level to create an expansive and versatile space, ideal for entertaining or family life. While the current kitchen remains functional, it’s ready for a new owner to design and fit a kitchen to their own taste, making it a brilliant blank canvas. there is also potential to add a further WC on this level. Patio doors lead directly onto the rear garden, perfect for summer gatherings.
Upstairs, you’ll find two further well-sized bedrooms, making the layout ideal for families or guests.
Location-wise, Percival Terrace is superbly situated. Dover Priory train station is just a short walk away, offering high-speed rail links to London St Pancras in around an hour. You’re also close to Dover town centre, reputable local schools, shops, and coastal attractions, with easy access to the A2 for onward travel.
