Summary - THE DEN RICHBOROUGH ROAD RICHBOROUGH SANDWICH CT13 9JG
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Rare 4.8-acre plot with approved holiday-use potential near Sandwich amenities.
Five-bedroom detached chalet-style house, c.2,139 sq ft
A rare detached five-bedroom chalet-style house set within 4.8 acres on the edge of Sandwich, offered with planning consent for eight timber glamping pods. The main house provides generous family accommodation across two storeys (c.2,139 sq ft) with large living spaces, a double garage and a sweeping gravel forecourt. The property sits privately behind mature conifer screening with open countryside views beyond.
The site already has planning approved (Dover 23/01421) for change of use to accommodate eight glamping pods, with associated access, parking and landscaping. Consent includes requirements for infrastructure works — footpath, parking layout, EV charging provision and waste management — so buyers should factor in these implementation costs. The land also has potential for temporary seasonal camping on additional acreage, offering flexible income options.
Practical considerations: the house uses electric storage heating and mains electricity, has double glazing of unknown age, and cavity walls assumed uninsulated — improvements are likely needed to modernise energy performance. Broadband speeds are slow and mobile signal average, which may affect holiday-let guests or home-working. The property is offered whole or split into two lots (house with ~1.6 acres or land with ~3.2 acres and consent), so purchasers can tailor the purchase to their plan.
This opportunity suits an investor or owner-operator seeking a countryside glamping business alongside a family home, or a developer able to deliver the consented infrastructure. Buyers should make their own enquiries on the current planning discharge status and factor in refurbishment, infrastructure and operating costs before purchase.
