  • UNIQUE DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY
  • LOCATED BEHIND THE COSTA COFFEE MAIN BUILDING

Description

Benefiting from a highly central position just moments from New Romney High Street, this is a rare and exciting development opportunity within an established and highly convenient location.

Planning permission has been granted for the erection of 2 x three-bedroom semi-detached houses (approx 93sqm each) situated to the rear of the Costa Coffee building, offering an excellent opportunity for developers or investors seeking a well-positioned residential scheme in the heart of the town.

The site occupies a tucked-away yet incredibly accessible setting within easy reach of local shops, restaurants, supermarkets and everyday amenities, making it ideally suited for modern residential living. Opportunities of this nature within such close proximity to the High Street are increasingly uncommon, particularly with planning consent already secured.

Further details can be found via the Folkestone & Hythe District Council planning portal under reference 26/0035/FH.

New Romney remains a popular and growing Romney Marsh town with excellent local facilities, schooling and transport links, whilst also being within easy reach of the Kent coastline and surrounding countryside.
