12 Thanet properties due to go under the hammer

Lot 91 - 59 Ramsgate Road, Margate went for £340k

There is a huge focus on Thanet at a specialist land and property auction next month which has a mix of lots in Ramsgate, Margate and Broadstairs.

The Clive Emson auction takes place on Tuesday 12 September at the Clive Emson conference Centre in Detling, Maidstone, beginning at 11am.

Ramsgate

Chapel Place

Lot 51 – 21 Chapel Place, Ramsgate

There is an investment opportunity at 21 Chapel Place– a block of six flats in a central location.

Investors are likely to be lining up to bid on this building that is currently let at £32,160 per annum with a one-bedroom cottage at the rear vacant at present.

It is thought that this element – which requires improvement – might be extended subject to all necessary consents being obtainable.

All the rental units have one bedroom apart from Flat 7 that has two.

The freehold guide price is £450-460,000.

Dave Henwood, auction valuer, said: “This is a fine investment opportunity in itself, but there is further potential.

“As long as all necessary consents are obtainable it might be possible to extend the unit at the rear, which will obviously increase rental income.

“The geography of this building is excellent with its position near the town centre.”

A magnificent period property on a sizeable plot of land at 59 Ramsgate Road will go under the hammer.

The freehold guide price for the property is £270-280,000.

Dave Henwood said: “This lot has plenty of potential in several directions and we anticipate interest from investors and builders.”

Kallis café and flats

Another Margate opportunity is a block which includes a café-restaurant – Kallis – and three self-contained flats.

It is being sold due to retirement and has a freehold guide price of £290-295,000.

The flats require a programme of improvement, but the property is just a short walk from the beach and the high street.

Investors and those looking to own a long-standing business with the added benefit of three flats are likely to be interested.
