Agent's Note: Planning permission has been granted in accordance with the application and plans and is subject to conditions. Please refer to Maidstone Borough Council's website for all conditions and further information.

There is a Public Right Of Way (prow) along the northern edge of the site.

The original planning permission was liable to cil (Community Infrastructure Levy) under the previous permission (Ref: 20/504096/full), where this was paid in full (£22,248.11). The new planning permission (Ref: 24/500504/full) is larger and therefore liable for the difference in cil payment. Only the difference, circa £6k is understood to be payable (confirmation email from Maidstone Borough Council is available). The seller understands if any potential buyer is a self-builder, they are likely to be exempt from any cil fee.
The buyer should make their own enquiries for confirmation regarding any further cil payment that may or may not be due.
