Property Description
Prime Coastal Development Opportunity – Former Royal Victoria Hospital, FolkestoneFraser Bond is pleased to present the Royal Victoria Hospital, a substantial former NHS healthcare estate located in the rapidly regenerating coastal town of Folkestone.
The property comprises a large multi-building hospital complex, historically providing a range of inpatient and outpatient services. As healthcare delivery has evolved and consolidated into modern facilities, the site has become increasingly underutilised, creating a rare opportunity for strategic redevelopment in a high-growth coastal location.
Occupying a prominent position near Radnor Park and within walking distance of Folkestone town centre and rail connections, the site benefits from exceptional accessibility and strong residential demand. Subject to planning, the property offers significant potential for residential-led development, mixed-use schemes, or alternative institutional uses, capitalising on the town’s ongoing transformation.
Folkestone has emerged as one of the South East’s most compelling regeneration stories, driven by investment, lifestyle appeal, and high-speed connectivity to London—making this a highly attractive development proposition.
