This property presents a unique chance to acquire a well-situated plot on a private road, currently featuring planning permission for the construction of a contemporary detached home exceeding 3,800 square feet. The approved plans include an extensive two-story residence designed with modern living in mind. The proposed layout encompasses a welcoming entrance hall leading to multiple living spaces on the ground floor, including a formal sitting room, a study, and an expansive kitchen that opens into a dining and family area. Additionally, it offers practical features such as a walk-in pantry and laundry room. The upper floors include four spacious bedrooms—two of which are accompanied by dressing rooms and en suite bathrooms—alongside a family bathroom. A fifth bedroom with its own en suite is thoughtfully placed on the second floor, enhancing privacy. For outdoor enjoyment, the design includes landscaped gardens surrounding the property and a paved terrace ideal for alfresco dining. Accessed via a block-paved driveway that provides ample off-road parking, the site is primed for both personal use or as an investment opportunity. Located within easy reach of key amenities, this plot is situated approximately 3.2 miles from Orpington’s shopping options and slightly further from Sevenoaks and Bromley, ensuring convenience for daily needs.

Local recreational facilities abound; residents can enjoy various golf clubs, cricket clubs, and sports centers in Sevenoaks that cater to hockey, football, and rugby enthusiasts. With planning permissions already granted (Ref: 23/02042/FULL1), this property not only promises an impressive living space but also holds substantial renovation potential for discerning investors or builders looking to capitalize on its prime location.
