Boys Hall Road, Willesborough, Ashford

Five New Homes Approved. One Existing Bungalow. Your Next Development? Ref: 1570609

Boys Hall Road is a development opportunity of around 0.96 acres in Willesborough, on the eastern side of Ashford.

Outline planning permission has been granted for up to five additional dwellings, with the existing bungalow at No. 6 retained.

That distinction matters.

You are not starting with a blank sheet of paper and hoping the principle of development gets accepted.

That part has already been established.

At the same time, this is outline permission with all matters reserved, so the final access, layout, scale, appearance and landscaping still need to be agreed through reserved matters.

In other words, the indicative scheme shows what could be achieved, but the eventual development is not locked into somebody else’s detailed design.

For the right buyer, that flexibility is part of the opportunity.

Five new homes, plus an existing asset
The illustrative plans show five detached four-bedroom houses arranged around the existing bungalow.

The suggested house types are generous family homes with garages, gardens and parking, but these drawings are indicative only.

The existing bungalow itself should not be ignored either.

It is a three-bedroom detached home of approximately 1,099 sq ft, with a study, large lounge, separate dining room, kitchen and bathroom.

Under the current outline permission it is retained.

A purchaser could therefore consider the bungalow as an existing asset alongside the new development, whether that means refurbishment, improvement, rental or eventual resale.

Any alternative proposal involving its replacement or further development would, of course, require separate planning and legal advice.

A site you can actually picture
The aerial views make the scale of the site much easier to understand.

There is a sizeable central area of land, established boundary screening and an existing access from Boys Hall Road.

The site sits within Ashford’s urban area, and the planning officer considered the principle of additional residential development acceptable. KCC Highways raised no objection to the development in highway terms.

The railway runs along the southern boundary and the planning permission includes a requirement for an appropriate noise protection scheme before development begins.

The numbers need to work for you
An October 2026 market appraisal suggested completed values for the five new four-bedroom houses in the region of £575,000 to £600,000 each, giving an indicative gross development value approaching £3 million for the five new homes alone.

That is an estimate, not a promise.

Any serious buyer should run their own appraisal, build costs, finance assumptions and end values.

And that is exactly the conversation I want to have.

Built one or two before?
Do not assume this site is only for the big boys.

If you have completed one or two projects, understand the process and are wondering whether you are ready for something bigger, pick up the phone.

Likewise, if you are an established developer looking for your next small scheme, I am happy to talk it through properly.

I have the planning decision, officer’s report, indicative drawings, aerial imagery and further information available.

Come and look at the site, look at the paperwork and decide whether this could be your next move.
