West Malling, Orwell Spike

Full planning consent has been received for a generous 5-bedroom, detached dwelling at this sought after location to the south of West Malling. The site is offered as a ‘plot+build’ opportunity with the house to be constructed by a leading, local contractor.

A unique opportunity to create your perfect living space within this beautifully designed, modern detached home. The external design is fixed and the buyer will work with the project team to design their ideal internal layout and then fully specify all internal features including kitchen, flooring, tiles, etc.

After the plot is purchased the house will be built for a fixed price by a renowned local contractor. The plot buyer will enter into two separate contracts – one to purchase the land and one to have the house built. Stamp duty is only payable on the plot purchase, a saving of £74,000 compared to buying a completed house of the same end value.

All payments for the build will be made in arrears and overseen by an independent Contracts Administrator.
