#TheGardenOfEngland

A generous building plot on the edge of Ashford adjoining surrounding farmland with planning permission for a stylish detached L-shaped single storey dwelling with accompanying detached garage and private entrance.

Sevington is on the periphery of Ashford, accessed from the A2070 by Sevington Church, from Mersham village via Cheesemans Green Road, and via Kingsnorth. There is convenient access to the M20 motorway and within a 5-10 minute drive is the International Train Station- providing services to London in circa 37 minutes.
Footpaths lead from the plot through the neighbouring farmland and towards the village of Mersham, where there is a popular Primary School, Sports Club and two Pubs.
Ashford town itself is well served by excellent schooling options, with a range of highly regarded state and private schools, all within a short drive.

Planning permission was granted on the 8th June 2023 for the ‘erection of replacement dwelling, with detached garage and associated parking and access’. Full details can be found on Ashford Borough Councils Planning Portal under case reference PA/2023/0727.
