Set on approximately 1.64 acres, this former farm complex offers substantial built accommodation and wide open grounds directly fronting the A26. The stone/brick farmhouse and a series of former agricultural buildings currently configured as four student blocks provide around 13,519 sq ft (circa 1,256 m²) of internal floor space and a total of 55 en‑suite rooms with communal kitchens and reception areas. Freehold tenure and vehicle access from Maidstone Road give clear physical control and good road connectivity to Tonbridge, Maidstone and the M20.
The site will suit an investor or developer seeking a large, flexible rural parcel: options include recommissioning as HMO/student accommodation, conversion to alternative residential uses subject to planning, or refurbishment of the existing buildings. Features include extensive yard and parking space, outbuildings, paddock‑like land, a nearby pond/stock water feature and broad countryside views to the rear.
Practical considerations are straightforward but material. Broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal only average, which may limit some occupier types. The buildings are typical of former agricultural stock and will need inspection for repair, refurbishment and compliance with current regulations; planning permission may be required for change of use. Flood risk is nil and the area is very affluent with low crime, which supports long‑term value.
Overall this is a large, roadside rural site with genuine development and income potential for an owner‑occupier or investor prepared to manage refurbishment, regulatory compliance and connectivity limitations. The asking price reflects the scale and adaptability of the property in a well‑connected Kent location.
