### Long Description
Situation
The land is located just off Ashford Road in Charing. It is within easy reach of all the local amenities including Charing Train Station, Primary School, shop, post office, sports club, butchers and library. It is well situated for families and those commuting to work. Charing is very well respected village and I recent history has shown us that new houses are in high demand here.
The site is in a lovely village location with views of the old village and up to the Kent Downs AONB. Charing gives easy access to the A20 and the onto the M20.
Planning Permission
Full planning permission was granted subject to conditions for the erection of a 51 unit age restricted affordable housing scheme to include 5 age restricted bungalows together with the creation of a new pedestrian and vehicular access point linking Maidstone Road through to the Arthur Baker Playing Fields and outline planning permission (matters to be reserved, appearance, landscaping, layout and scale) for the erection of market sale housing units on the remainder of the site. 
Orbit Housing Association are about to start construction of the age restricted element of the site, including the access onto the A20.
Useful planning documents are available on our website under www.hobbsparker.co.uk/library/maidstone-road  Other additional and background information will be found under planning at Ashford Borough Council using Planning ref 14/01486/AS.
The Proposed Layout
The indicative layout shows 40 houses with a mix of 2, 3 and 4 bed houses. The planning conditions dictate that 64% of the houses must be either 2 or 3 beds. You may not be restricted to 40 houses however if you choose to reconsider the proposed layout.
The land sold includes 2.14 acres of land that is outside the built development area and therefore provides ample opportunity to provide natural open space.
