- be at least 18 years

Dover District Council are pleased to offer a mix of 2, 3 and 4-bedroom Shared Ownership homes in Sholden, a small village adjacent to the seaside town of Deal. Perfectly located, Deal town and Sandwich are a short drive from the development where you will find local pubs, cafes, restaurants and great historical amenities. There are also primary schools within walking distance as well as secondary schools nearby. These properties are within a Designated Protected Area (DPA). A DPA is typically in a rural location where housing is limited, and affordability is a long-term concern. To ensure that shared ownership homes remain available to future buyers, there is a restriction on the maximum share you can own—usually capped at 80%. This means you won’t be able to staircase to 100% ownership. If you are unclear about what this means, please refer to the Capital Funding Guide.
We have x2 3-bed end terrace properties available (property type SH52). These houses is on offer for £350,000 with a minimum of a 10% share. These properties have a separate living room and kitchen downstairs with vinyl flooring throughout the ground floor. The kitchen is fitted with modern appliances and there is a downstairs cloakroom. Upstairs there are 2 double bedrooms, 1 single bedroom and a family bathroom. The stairs, hallway, landing and bedrooms all have fitted carpet. These properties come with 2 allocated parking spaces.
We operate a priority cascade for some of our shared ownership developments. This is to ensure that properties we sell meet the needs of applicants, and to help reduce underoccupancy of family homes. The length of the marketing cascade will be determined by the size of the property, the location and the need in the area, and can vary between developments. This will usually apply to larger family sized homes, such as 3, 4 or 5 bed properties.
