Boughton Mount offers a rare 11.3-acre development opportunity with 1.8 hectares (4.44 acres) identified as developable under the recently adopted Maidstone Local Plan (Policy H1(52)). The site includes important historic assets — a Grade II listed Ha-Ha and Folly plus a water tower, barn and walled garden — that must be retained and restored, and any planning application must be supported by detailed heritage and archaeological assessments.
The existing buildings have been empty since 2009 and are in poor condition and unsuitable for reuse; comprehensive demolition and site remediation will be required. The site is split: the northern half contains the built form and the southern half is heavily wooded, which constrains developable footprint but provides strong landscape and privacy value. Broadband speeds are reported slow; mobile signal is excellent.
Offers are invited by informal tender (deadline 14th February) for the freehold, either unconditional or subject to planning. The asking price is £2,000,000. This lot suits a developer or investor able to manage heritage constraints, deliver restoration of listed assets and absorb substantial remediation and enabling works before construction can proceed.
