A rare freehold land opportunity close to Downingbury Farm House in the Tunbridge Wells area, offered for sale at timed online auction. The plot sits in a very affluent rural neighbourhood near Kent College and local amenities, with convenient rail links (around 40 minutes to Pembury Station from London). It suits investors or developers prepared to pursue planning permission for redevelopment or alternative uses.
The site is advertised with strong upside: development potential subject to permissions, immediate offers accepted, and comparative local sales nearby that indicate solid value. The parcel is being sold at a guide price intended to secure a swift auction sale, making it attractive to buyers seeking a potentially high-return purchase.
Buyers should note material details and verify them before bidding. The listing contains inconsistent size information (described both as approximately 1 acre and as around 400 sqm); prospective purchasers must confirm exact area and boundaries. The land will require planning consent for most development uses and may need preparatory works; no guarantees of permission are given.
Practical considerations: tenure is freehold and the lot has no reported flood risk. Broadband speeds are slow despite excellent mobile signal. The wider area records high crime statistics and the site is in a hamlet/isolated setting, which affects access and security. This is a straightforward auction purchase for investors who understand the site-specific risks and regulatory process.
