Situation
Frog Hollow is situated on a country lane in a convenient location about 0.75 mile south east of Shadoxhurst village. The village of Hamstreet which has wider amenities including a primary school and railway station is only 2.5 miles to the south. The fast evolving town of Ashford with its domestic and international passenger stations (St. Pancras HS1 service from 37 minutes) as well as connections to the M20 motorway is only 4.5 miles to the north. The pretty Wealden town of Tenterden with its picturesque High Street offering shopping and leisure facilities is about 7 miles to the west.
The Bungalow
The existing bungalow provides comfortable accommodation and has potential to extend if you preferred not to build the new house. To the side is a detached garage, 2 store rooms, a WC as well as a brick workshop, within a small courtyard area.
Gardens
There are gardens to both the front and rear of the dwelling. The front garden benefits from twin entrance drives with potential to create an ?in/out? drive. The rear garden includes a greenhouse, a well feature and enjoys a lovely outlook over the pasture and woodland to the rear.
Planning
1) A full planning consent was granted by Ashford Borough Council under planning reference 21/00564/AS on 19th May this year for a replacement dwelling with cart lodge and summer house together with a new improved access drive. Full plans and drawings are available at
2) The following planning application consents have previously been granted by Ashford Borough Council at the property :
a) No 17/01153/AS - ??Outline application for the demolition of the existing dwelling & outbuilding and the erection of a replacement detached dwelling including layout and access with landscaping , scale and appearance reserved.??
This consent expired on 31st March 2021 but could probably be renewed.
b) No 18/00317/AS - ??Erection of a detached incidental building to serve the main dwelling.??
This consent expired on 17th April 2021 but could probably be renewed.
Land
The land comprises approximately half open land and half woodland with a number of attractive trees having been retained within the open land. The open land has in the past been used to keep horses and ponies. However, the previous owner was a keen naturalist who transformed the grounds into a haven for a wide variety of flora, fauna, insects and wildlife. He restored an old stream and created a small pond and a swimming lake.
He also enhanced the meadow land by planting numerous wild flowers which attract a large number of different species butterflies. It is felt that the open land could be returned to grazing if needed.
Beyond and to the side of the open land is an area of mixed woodland. To the rear of the woodland is a byway which can also be accessed for off-road hacking.
Former Stable Area
This is next to the swimming lake on a large concrete base. The stables have recently been removed but could easily be rebuilt, if the buyer chose not to build the proposed summer house. Next to the stable area is a good size greenhouse and 1 smaller greenhouse.
