Hildenborough, Kent

Site Description The site measures approximately 3.1 acres, consisting of plots for three luxurious executive styled detached properties located in the exclusive village of Hildenborough.

The existing buildings are built from white rendered bricks with steep pitched roofs, bay windows and gabled dormers. The properties are set back from the main highway, behind mature trees and vegetation. The properties are accessed via individual, private driveways off Riding Lane. Lytlewood also benefits from a tranquil pond/lake which is enclosed by natural woodland. Apart from the dwellings, there are a number of outbuildings and poly-tunnels that are scattered across the rear gardens of the dwellings. To the North of the site is circa 2.1 acres of woodland. This attractive arboretum of fine specimen trees is available for purchase separately, in individual lots or as a whole. The sale of the land will be subject to a restrictive covenant to maintain its current use.
