Thomas and Partners are delighted to present a primely located Victorian property, with rich history. Entre through a gated driveway just along from Folkestone's beautiful viaducts, is one of your access points, the other is a gated walkway of Guildhall Street. Located less than a 5 minute walk to the town centre and Folkestone Central Train Station.
This building used to be the original Harvey Grammar School built in 1886 by architect Robert Wheeler, known for designing churches and chapels, you can see this through ecclesiastical building with its belltower, buttresses and large windows. Since been a NHS Health Centre and now split into four separate dwellings for private housing. Due to this the property has had bits added to fit all these needs but would do with someone developing it to highlight its original features.
The property consists of the school hall with original oak flooring, large windows (some with stained glass) and beautiful beams. It has since had a kitchen fitted in the middle and the start of an upstairs. Off the hall is two rooms with their own fireplace and upstairs from these are two bedroom, one with en suite bathroom. The extension was believed to be added when it was the Health Centre and has changed into an annex with garage and utility room attached.
Folkestone has plenty of shops, boutiques and restaurants as well as hotels and tourist attractions. There are great transport links to surrounding towns and cities and easy access to the continent too with the Channel Tunnel and Ferries from Dover. Folkestone is also fortunate to have two High Speed Rail links to London, making the commute in under one hour. The town has further development along the sea front planning to expand the amenities of the Harbour Arm. Folkestone has a bright future and is a great place to live and invest in. It is unlikely for such a large property with this much potential in the heart of town to come up again. It is a perfect investment opportunity for builder, architects or someone willing to work hard and have a rewarding grand house to live in after.
