Rare Freehold Opportunity - A Substantial And Established Residential, Commercial And Grazing Land ComplexAuction Date:
18th September 2025

This 11.9 acre site is held over three freehold Titles and comprises a significant period detached residence with seven bedrooms, a part one/two storey detached annexe cottage, two sections of grazing land, stables, paddock, a storage yard, nine commercial light industrial buildings, a portacabin and various other timber built cabin buildings.

Located close to the junction of the A227 Gravesend Road and Harvel Road, between Vigo Village, Fairseat and Culverstone Green, it is considered to have particular potential for redevelopment, including the renovation and re-modelling of the main house into flats, subject to all planning consents being obtainable. Equally, the commercial enterprise returns valuable rental income, whilst the grazing land creates further opportunities.

Land Parcels

These are located to the southwest of the main building and the northeast including a stable block and a caravan. The northeast section is held on a separate freehold Title. We understand from the seller the land, paddock and stables are let for £7,440 per annum. In addition, there is a separate gated yard area for storage, which is let for £4,800 per annum.

Various Outbuildings

We understand from the seller two of the timber cabin buildings directly behind the main building are occupied as living accommodation, both producing a rental income of £7,200 per annum.

Auctioneer's Note 2

We understand from the seller there are two water wells (one closed, one half open) and the commercial buildings are Council Rated with independent utility services. The timber cabins share the services from the commercial part, including drainage and water. All interested parties are advised to carry out their own investigations prior to the auction.
