Set within about 0.95 acres of mature, tree‑lined land, this fully consented plot offers a rare chance to build an architect‑led two‑storey woodland retreat. The approved design places living spaces at canopy level to maximise panoramic views across Temple Ewell Downs while keeping lower floors tucked into the slope for discreet massing and thermal efficiency. High‑quality materials and eco‑systems are central to the scheme: black timber cladding, rammed cement walls, wildflower roofs, solar PV and thermal panels, and a ground‑source heat pump.
The site is private and west‑facing, bordered by mature trees with dual access from The Avenue and Park Road, generous off‑street parking and a carport. Approved landscaping already accounts for protected slow‑worm habitat and TPO‑protected trees, so the home is designed to sit lightly within its woodland setting. Commuters benefit from strong rail links (Kearsney station within a 10‑minute walk; Dover Priory c.9 minutes by car) and quick road access to Canterbury, Folkestone and the Port of Dover.
Important practical points for buyers: planning permission is in place for the described scheme, but some utilities are described as “understood to be available nearby” rather than confirmed connected. The site sensitivity — TPO trees, ecological hibernaculum and established wildlife — will constrain future works and landscaping choices. Broadband speeds are recorded as very slow, which may affect home working without a bespoke connectivity solution.
This plot will suit someone seeking a high‑end, environmentally focused build that responds to the land: an owner‑builder, family or professional buyer who values privacy, design quality and nature. The approved scheme reduces lead time for construction, but buyers should factor in the ecological protections and utility connection checks when budgeting and planning next steps.
