Key information
Property description & features
- Stunning Detached Building With Planning Permission
- Currently A Venue For Hire With First-Fixed Residential Conversion Over
- Beautiful Elevated Position Adjacent Church and Overlooking The River Medway
- Available With Large Parking Area To Front
This extremely rare opportunity to purchase such a wonderful detached building with spectacular views in all directions should not be missed. The Grade II listed building itself is primarily constructed of local ragstone in a Gothic style that reflects the architectural character of the adjacent church. Currently the ground floor is used as a venue for hire, with unexpired wedding and civil partnership licence, and is regularly used for commercial and community events, meeting and parties. A well-fitted kitchen and toilets support this use. The commercial revenue gained from these activities has been significant. Specific details in respect of this revenue is available on request.
The separately accessed upper floor, now with its own address, has been under conversion for some time in accordance with planning ref no. 14/0023. First-fix plumbing and electrics are in place and the mezzanine floors have been passed by Building Regulations. The vast majority of the work to create a large and flexible residential unit is therefore in place.
Planning permission for the ground floor areas has never been sought by the present owners. As such, buyers that may be interested in exploring the possibility of gaining planning permission to develop the ground floor should seek direct advice from the local authority (Maidstone Council Planning Department[use Contact Agent Button] or [use Contact Agent Button]).
East Farleigh is a popular village that sits on the banks of the River Medway. At its heart is a picturesque medieval stone bridge and a small marina. This property, the adjacent church and churchyard are just a couple of minutes away on the southerly side of the river. East Farleigh has its own rail station and village school. Mainstream amenities can be found within Maidstone and its surrounding suburbs, which are only a short drive away. Notably this region benefits from excellent schooling, with several secondary and grammar schools being easily reached. Transport links to the capital are very comfortable, with a choice of mainline stations within a short drive and the motorway network's nearest junction at Aylesford being just four miles away.
Important Note: Prospective buyers should be aware that longstanding users of the hall may appreciate considerate notice of the facility being withdrawn from them should the new owner not wish to retain them.

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on December 26, 2021
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
