Description

A rare development opportunity to acquire a substantial residential building plot with full planning consent for the redevelopment of the existing property into four high-quality detached family homes (with car barns), set within the sought-after village of Speldhurst, near Tunbridge Wells.

The approved scheme provides for the demolition of the existing dwelling and outbuildings and the construction of four individually designed detached houses, each extending to approximately 238–275 sq m (GIA), arranged as two dwellings fronting Ferbies and two facing Langton Road. The proposals include associated car ports, private gardens, new access arrangements and comprehensive landscaping.

Designed by Taylor Roberts Architects, the scheme has been carefully developed to reflect the local vernacular and High Weald character, incorporating traditional pitched roofs, brickwork, tile hanging and timber detailing. The development also delivers a minimum 10% biodiversity net gain, in line with current planning policy, alongside sustainability and energy-efficiency measures.

The site lies outside any Conservation Area and is well screened by mature hedging and trees, while benefiting from a village setting with excellent access to Tunbridge Wells, local amenities and mainline rail services.

Planning permission has been granted, with detailed drawings, layouts and supporting documentation available upon request.

An excellent opportunity for developers seeking a consented, well-designed residential scheme in a prime Kent village location.

Class E permitted development rights have not been removed which means future occupiers could look to add a garden office/pod, etc.
