Description

Land with Planning Permission for Two Contemporary Semi-Detached Homes – Leigh

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a prime parcel of land with full planning permission (Sevenoaks Ref: 25/01952/FUL) for the demolition of an existing single-storey garage and the construction of two attractive three-bedroom semi-detached dwellings, thoughtfully designed for modern living.

Each property will offer well-proportioned accommodation comprising a welcoming entrance hall with cloakroom, a comfortable sitting room, and a spacious open-plan kitchen/dining room ideal for family life and entertaining. To the first floor, there are three bedrooms including a principal bedroom with en suite, alongside a contemporary family bathroom.

Externally, each home benefits from allocated parking for two vehicles, complete with EV charging points, and the inclusion of solar panels enhances the development’s energy efficiency credentials.

The site is situated just outside the highly sought-after and picturesque village of Leigh, renowned for its charming mock Tudor listed buildings and quintessential village green, where cricket is played during the summer months. The village offers a range of local amenities including a primary school, church, village store, post office, and Leigh railway station with services to Victoria and the Tonbridge/Redhill line.

The surrounding area is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, with easy access to woodland, public footpaths, and cycle routes connecting Leigh and Tonbridge, as well as nearby countryside walks and The Plough public house.

Hildenborough mainline station (serving Charing Cross and Cannon Street) lies approximately two miles away, while the larger towns of Sevenoaks and Tonbridge provide an excellent selection of shopping, educational, and recreational facilities.

The area is particularly well regarded for its outstanding schools, including Sevenoaks School, Sevenoaks Prep, Schools at Somerhill, New Beacon, Weald of Kent Grammar School, Tonbridge Girls’ Grammar School, Judd School for Boys, Hilden Grange Preparatory School, and Tonbridge School.

Recreational facilities are abundant, with Sevenoaks Leisure Centre, golf courses at Nizels and Poult Wood, cricket at The Vine, and a variety of local sports clubs all within easy reach.

The property also benefits from convenient access to the A21, providing swift connections to the national motorway network, Gatwick, Stansted and Heathrow Airports, the Channel Tunnel, and the Kent coastline
