Descriptif

JLL is delighted to present an exceptional residential development opportunity located adjacent to Ashton Way in Leybourne, West Malling, Kent.

The site extends to approximately 2.83 hectares (7 acres) and is allocated in the Draft Tonbridge & Malling Borough Council Regulation 19 Local Plan under Policy MG3 for up to 95 residential dwellings alongside the adjacent landowner.

The property comprises predominantly agricultural land with established woodland tree belts and benefits from mature tree screening along the A20 London Road frontage. The site's boomerang shape and level topography make it highly suitable for residential development. The property is currently held under a Farm Business Tenancy which is currently being renewed. Vacant possession is achievable under the proposed extension terms.

Independent vehicular access can be achieved from the A20 London Road to the north, providing direct connectivity to the strategic road network. The property benefits from a strategic position in the well-connected area of West Malling, offering excellent access to both central London and the wider Kent region. The site is exceptionally well-positioned, being enclosed by major road infrastructure including the A20 and A228 (Leybourne Bypass), offering efficient connections to the M20 and M26 motorways.

The site has received positive pre-application feedback from both Tonbridge & Malling Borough Council and KCC Highways for a scheme of up to 50 dwellings on the Kent County Council land parcel. The Council's pre-application response concluded the proposal would be "likely to be supported" subject to technical matters being addressed.

West Malling railway station is within 1 mile, providing regular direct services to London Victoria and London Bridge, reaching central London in under 50 minutes. The location benefits from proximity to West Malling town centre amenities, local schools, and the major business hub of Kings Hill approximately 2.6 miles to the south east.

Offers are invited for the freehold interest on all bases including Unconditional, Subject to Planning, Option and Promotion arrangements.
