Plot Watch: Splendid Location in Rural Kent

Carl and Amy Briant are looking for a rural plot with countryside views. They recognise that sites with such a description are few and far between and, while replacing an existing house could provide the a setting they’d like, this can be an expensive option.

A barn conversion would be ideal, but again, opportunities are scarce in the south east. Recently, when out on a country walk, the couple noticed a ruined farmyard, complete with what looks like a tiny former cottage.

The situation and views are fantastic. Could this be a realistic option for them?

The site

The proposed plot is located about a mile from a small village, which has a pub, shop and school. It’s positioned about 75m away from a country lane in the middle of a large field.

Could a house be built in this Kent site?

There’s a public footpath passing close by and a gateway a little further up the lane, which looks like it might once have been the access route. There are a few mature trees to one side of the site, which is situated at the top of a gentle hill with open views to both the east and south of wooded, rolling countryside.

The plot has various brick walls and a small structure, and measures about 20m x 17m. Some of the walls look like they might have been part of a building and others part of the surroundings of a walled farmyard.
