Western Esplanade, Broadstairs, CT10

PRIME SEA FRONT DETACHED PROPERTY FOR RE-USE OR RE-DEVELOPMENT

This substantial former care home is located in a prime sea front position on the prestigious Western Esplanade in Broadstairs. The premises has until recently been operating as a 28 bedroom residential care home and would now, in our opinion, lend itself to a variety of commercial or residential uses, subject to any necessary planning permissions. Potential uses may include change of use and reconfiguration to a hotel, house of multiple occupation, or alternatively conversion or redevelopment of the site to a fully residential scheme.

The current accommodation is arranged over three floors amounting to approximately 872m2 (9391sqft), with rooms located at the front of the building affording outstanding sea and cliff-top views. Twenty of the bedrooms have an en-suite W.C. The property benefits from inner and rear courtyard gardens and additional parking with access via neighbouring Leybourn Road.

Viewings are strictly by appointments with the sole selling Agents. Call 01843 866866 for your appointment.
