Description
A newly fenced and gated parcel of pasture on the western edge of the desirable and well-connected town of Tonbridge. Split down the middle by an attractive brook, with established treeline boundaries to the north, east and west. Right of way access over a future development site to the south, leading directly off Upper Haysden Lane.
The site comprises a parcel of permanent pasture extending to approx. 7.9 acres and is newly fenced. The land is bordered by trees to the north, east and west, as well as a thicker triangle of ancient woodland protruding into the middle of the southern border. Directly beyond the tree boundaries are school grounds/playing fields to the east, the railway line to the north, and a fishing lake to the west. A thin strip of trees and small brook travels from the triangle of ancient woodland from south to north through the land, effectively creating two separate paddocks, albeit still connected in one place, and offers an attractive focal point to the middle of the parcel.
Bordering to the south, and sitting in between the land and Lower Haysden lane, is a further parcel of permanent pasture which has planning permission for 125 dwellings, to be built by Cala Homes (Planning Ref. TM/19/00014/ OAEA and TM/22/02690/RM). The plans for this development show a substantial green space buffer, including the retention of ancient woodland and creation of ponds, in between the subject Property and the proposed housing. In line with this the proposed housing is all weighted towards the south of the development and therefore does not directly border the subject Property to the north. Plans are freely available on the Tonbridge and Malling Borough Council website or can be provided by Batcheller Monkhouse upon request.
Access to the land will be via a right of way access crossing down the western boundary of the land parcel that borders directly to the south, with a 5-bar metal field gate at either end of this access track, and the one at the entrance to the land itself being double width. The track will be a mown path with access granted at all times and for all purposes, including vehicular use.
The land is located on the outskirts of the popular commuter town of Tonbridge, under 1 mile and walking distance from the town centre, and with Haysden Country Park directly to the north. With a drive of only 5 minutes to the town centre, the site is accessed from the north side of Lower Haysden Lane. Closeby to the A21, A26, Tonbridge station and Gatwick. Easy connection via A21 to the M25 and wider motorway network.
The site is offered for sale freehold with vacant possession available on completion.
Please contact Josh Pearson at the Tunbridge Wells Office for enquiries.
