Land for sale

Land Gore Farm, Upchurch, Sittingbourne, Kent ME9

An idyllic parcel of land located on the outskirts of Upchurch village, a short distance from Upchurch Golf Club. The site has been granted permission for the development of two houses. The approved permission occupies around one-third of the total site and there may be potential for an alternative scheme for either one large house or, perhaps, several units, subject to all necessary consent being obtainable.

The flat site is situated in a quiet location and surrounded by orchards, with the boundary being marked by a new hedgerow. We have been advised by the seller that there is water on site and other utilities close by, however, interested applicants are advised to rely on their own investigations.

The finished properties will enjoy countryside walks and it is understood there may be uninterrupted countryside views from the first floors.
