A rare opportunity to acquire an approx. 0.05 acre pot with outline planning granted for a commercial craft workshop.

The plot is set in the highly sought after seaside town of Whitstable and situated behind Boots the chemist just off Victoria Mews and Regent Street in the town.

The seafront and beach are just minutes away on foot and the train station can be reached within an approx 15-minute walk.

The town has a variety of independent shops and boutiques, as well as high street names. There are good local primary and secondary schools, numerous restaurants, and excellent leisure facilities. It has its own mainline railway station with a high-speed service to St Pancras, a regular Stagecoach bus service and good road links to London and the coast via A290/M2. 

The nearby cathedral city of Canterbury is a vibrant and cosmopolitan city, with a thriving city centre offering a wide array of High Street brands alongside a diverse mix of independent retailers, cafes, and international restaurants. The city also offers a fine selection of sporting, leisure, and recreational amenities, including the refurbished Marlowe Theatre.  

Canterbury has an excellent choice of educational amenities, including three comprehensive schools, three Grammar schools and a number of well-regarded junior and senior private schools. There are also three universities, two hospitals and two railway stations with a regular and fast service to London.

There is plenty of beautiful countryside nearby as well, including Wraik Hill Nature Reserve, Victory Woods Nature Reserve and Blean Woods.
