This is a great opportunity for a developer to take a conditional contract, subject to reserved matters, and get their hands on a very well located site for 9 detached houses, easy and clean to develop and with good resale potential.



#TheGardenOfEngland



This site at Canterbury Road, Kennington extends to approximately 1.88 acres and has outline planning permission for 9 detached houses and access onto Canterbury Road with all other matters reserved. It is a great location providing easy access into the town centre and the International Station and the houses will have a feeling of space as they look out over the playing fields at the rear, with views of the North Downs.

The site is expected to be clean, free from archaeology (subject to confirmation) and due to its current use status, has very little ecology which requires mitigation. Just the usual enhancement advice for bird boxes and hedgehogs etc. The site will connect to the mains drain but will need to provide a mitigation strategy for nitrates and phoshates. The owners are currently exploring the options to assist with this.

The site will be offered on a conditional contract. This will allow the developer to get their reserved matters approved, including the drainage conditions before the contract becomes unconditional. In addition to those triggers the development for the nine houses cannot commence until the new football pitches have been built. The planning permission for those pitches has been obtained and the Club expects to start construction in the Autumn of 2021 with completion in the summer of 2022. The developer will not be required to complete the purchase of the housing site until the pitches have been signed off.

All things being well the pitches and the drainage scheme should all come together in the time it takes the developer to gain reserved matters approval. At that point completion will take place and development of the houses can commence.
