Land Appraisal: Garden Infill Site in Kent

Back in the July 2017 edition of Build It, I looked at a possible plot within Matt Hudson’s large garden.

The site was about 400 metres from a village edge and within an area of outstanding natural beauty, so on the face of it a bit of a long-shot.

In this article you can find my original assessment, followed with a recent update. Did Matt secure planning permission for his project? Read on…

The plot’s location

Matt Hudson was already thinking of extending his existing house, or maybe building an annexe in the garden, when he noticed that new homes were starting to pop up around the towns and villages in his area.

Inspired, he decided to clear an area of scrub that separated his own property from his neighbour’s – revealing what looks to be a well-sized potential infill plot.

So what are the prospects of being able to self build here?

Matt’s house is just outside a village that was bypassed several years ago.

He lives on the old main road at the periphery of the settlement, and his property forms part of
a loose scatter of large homes set on good-sized plots.
