Wickhurst Road, Weald

A rare opportunity to purchase a secluded 2.3 acre development site in the heart of weald village, with a pre-application proposal for 5 detached homes with rural outlook

DESCRIPTION
Located within the heart of Weald Village, this potential development site extends to approximately 2.3 acres, set back from the road. Surrounded by a picturesque rural outlook with countryside views.

With direct vehicle access from the road and bordered by mature hedging and trees with two sides of the plot adjacent to open farmland.

Currently, the land includes several outbuildings, one of which has residential planning permission, alongside a second area also approved for residential development.

In addition, a pre-application proposal has been submitted for the comprehensive redevelopment of the site, envisaging five detached homes ranging from approximately 1,700 sq ft to 2,600 sq ft. Each property would benefit from private gardens and garages, complemented by a thoughtfully designed communal parkland area to the front, positioning the homes slightly elevated to maximise the surrounding countryside views.

This site is being offered without full planning permission. However the pre-application letter from Sevenoaks Council is very positive and available to any interested parties.
