- ** DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY **
- ** OUTLINE PLANNING APPROVED FOR 7 DWELLINGS **
- A Bespoke 'Barnstyle' development in Hamstreet of 7 Homes
- Access bridge constructed in readiness for site-completion
- Ashford Borough Council suggested a 'Homestead style' development
- 2 x 5 Bedroom Detached. 1 x 4 Bedroom Detached. 4 x 3 Bedroom semi-detached
- Semi-Rural Position with great road links to Tenterden & Ashford
- Site extending too approx 1.23acres (0.5 hectare)
- Viewings to be accompanied strictly by appointment only
The site benefits from outline planning permission for seven new homes. Occupying a fantastic position next to the thriving Garden Centre, a semi-rural location on the outskirts of the popular village of Hamstreet and just a short drive to the thriving town of Tenterden as well as the larger town of Ashford.
The village of Hamstreet offers a mainline railway station, primary school and nursery, doctor’s surgery with dispensing chemist, a stunning woodland nature reserve and a host of other amenities.
Hamstreet’s mainline train station offers regular services into Ashford International, where the high-speed service is available to London St Pancras (a journey of approx. 37 minutes), or services to Rye, and onwards to Brighton. By road, the A2070 bypass provides access towards Junction 10 of the M20.
The development will be relatively straight forward, having removed the previous buildings and the access bridge already constructed, with the properties offering a 'Barn/Homestead type feeling.' Offering something different to the more standard design of new housing estates found locally.
The current masterplan makes way for 2 x 5 Bedroom Detached, 1 x 4 Bedroom Detached and 4 x 3 Bedroom Semi Detached homes, however, there may be scope to amend the out-line planning approved to further enhance the sq ft or design of the homes. We encourage all purchasers to seek further advice via planning officers at ABC. Purchasers are recommended to form a management company for the site once constructed.
Outline Planning Permission was granted by Ashford Borough Council for consent of the erection of 7 dwellings with associated parking, landscaping and drainage with all matters reserved except for access from Marsh Road; Further information is available via planning portal at Ashford Borough Council using Planning ref: 22/00792/AS.
The Access Bridge
The Bridge was designed to KCC & Drainage Board specifications. The agent does hold numerous design documents available for purchasers review.
Services
Electric: UKPN Document / plan – 500KVA transformer supply installed / sub-station on GC Land. Conduit in place for spur to housing development but UKPN will not run the cable until required / construction starting. Water Supply – Mains supply runs along Marsh Road so should be suitable to be connected to. Waste Water – Hamstreet Garden Centre. Waste Water drainage pipe runs up Marsh Road. It is believed there is a chamber near-by (Nearest to the village) of Hamstreet, this feeds to the gravity fed mains drainage system. We understand that a pumping station, like the Garden Centre uses, would be required for the development once constructed.
