A rare, large rural site close to Tilmanstone village, offered with planning consent (Dover District Council ref: 22/01652). The land includes the former Danefield House footprint and substantial grounds, providing scope for a high-value new build or a small development subject to confirming planning details. The site benefits from existing access from St Mary’s Grove, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and straightforward road links to Sandwich, Dover and Ashford.
The plot is edged by mature planting and trees, several with Tree Preservation Orders, giving strong seclusion and established boundaries but also potential constraints on tree work and layout. Parts of the land were previously used for commercial activity and hard-standing; purchasers should investigate any remediation or groundworks that may be required before construction. The property has an existing building on site and records show a derelict manor destroyed by fire in the 1980s, so full site surveys are advisable.
This opportunity will suit developers, builders or buyers seeking a large private country plot with development upside. Important practical matters: confirm planning status and any conditions with Dover District Council, check for contamination or ground constraints from past commercial use, and clarify tenure/council tax details. Flood risk is recorded as none, and transport links to London and regional centres are reasonable for a rural location.
