A superb opportunity to acquire a substantial plot with planning permission for a unique architect-designed home.
The Warren offers incoming purchasers a most exciting prospect to self-build a contemporary home designed to connect with the superb surrounding habitat.
Situated just 3 miles from the sought after village of Otford, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, The Warren is approached via a long driveway and currently leads to several outbuildings with some hardstanding and with fields stretching to the west and south with a lake and woodland.
Set in a substantial plot of approx. 8.7 acres, there is planning permission to build a contemporary detached home designed to sympathetically blend into the natural landscape, comprising 3/4 bedrooms, a superb open-plan kitchen/breakfast/sitting room and additional reception/recreational spaces, in grounds retaining the fields, lake and woodland.
Planning Permission: Ref: 21/02462/FUL (Extant) for 'Demolition of existing dwelling and associated outbuildings, erection of replacement dwelling with associated works.'
The proposed dwelling has been thoughtfully designed to reflect the character of its setting, employing a palette of natural materials including stone, timber and traditional roofing finishes. The result is intended to be calm, understated architecture that feels intrinsically connected to the landscape and will mature gracefully over time.
Internally the planning permission has been granted for a striking glazed central entrance hall, linking the living areas and bedrooms. A superb open-plan reception room adjoins the kitchen/breakfast room which slightly elevated within the design.
Across the glazed hall there is a principal bedroom with ensuite facilities, together with a second bedroom, a third bedroom/study and a shower room. There is also a utility room, coat/boot room and cloakroom to this floor.
To the lower ground/basement level there is a generous open plan reception/games room with a gym with cloakroom, a guest suite with en suite facilities, store and plant rooms.
Externally, the designs present a carefully considered composition of stone, timber and traditional roofing materials, resulting in a timeless home whose natural palette and understated character sit comfortably within its surroundings.
The landscaping will provide a driveway with parking for several vehicles and immediate gardens which will lead to the remainder of the land, retaining its natural landscape comprising a beautiful lake, fields and woodland.
In total the plot amounts to just over 8 acres.
