Description
Offers Invited by 12pm Wednesday 21st October 2026
An exciting opportunity to acquire a development site for two individually designed detached homes, available either as a whole or as two individual building plots.
Extending to just over a third of an acre (TBV), the site is positioned behind Scarborough Farm on the rural outskirts of Burham village. Its elevated setting should provide attractive views across the Medway Valley and towards the North Downs.
Planning permission was previously granted for the development and subsequently lapsed. A fresh planning application has now been submitted to reinstate the proposed scheme.
The design combines a contemporary architectural approach, including generous areas of glazing, with traditional materials intended to complement the surrounding rural landscape and neighbouring buildings.
Each proposed property benefits from two allocated parking spaces together with additional visitor parking.
Offers are invited for the entire site or for either plot individually, with interested parties asked to submit their best offer by 12pm on Wednesday 21st October 2026.
Burham village boasts a strong sense of community. It's common to see horses from local stables on the roads and many people enjoying walks along the North Downs Way in the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
For dining or a drink, the Butchers Block is just a 3-minute drive away, and nearby Aylesford village, a 5-minute drive, offers great options like The Hengist for cocktails and fine dining or The Little Gem for a pint of ale or cider.
The local Church of England primary school is rated 'Good' and there are several secondary schools, including grammar schools, in Maidstone (5 miles), Rochester (5.5 miles), and Aylesford (3.7 miles). Additionally, Rochester is home to The King's School, a highly regarded independent school.
Commuters have convenient access to the M2 and M20 via nearby Blue Bell Hill. London commuters can drive 15 miles (around 18 minutes) to Ebbsfleet station, where frequent high-speed trains to London St Pancras take as little as 19 minutes.
Original Planning Permission granted for a period of 3 years from 2nd December 2019 by Tonbridge and Malling Borough Council under reference 22/02239/FL
The plots are intended to have an off mains sewage system
The plot is being sold with a stipulation that no major alterations are made to the approved planning permission.
Estimated Gross Development Value = £1.3million
