A superb rural investment opportunity opportunity on the North Kent Downs
Drylands Farm Drylands Farm is a ring-fenced commercial arable farm with a private Grade II listed farmhouse at its core. The farmhouse is supported by a small collection of traditional farm buildings, together forming a desirable residential farm with great potential to create a beautiful country house in a very private, rural setting.
There are a range of farm buildings used to support the farm, some located at Drylands Farmhouse and others located separately off Wellhouse Lane. The farm has been occupied by the same family for two generations with one further succession permitted under the terms of the Agricultural Holdings Act 1986 tenancy.
The tenancy was renewed in 1995 which at the time of writing, we understand makes it qualify for agricultural property relief from inheritance tax. Prospective purchasers should seek independent tax and legal advice for assurance on this.
Drylands Farmhouse A long driveway from Wellhouse Lane passes through arable land before entering the farm yard. The traditional four-bedroom farmhouse is Grade II listed, and of painted brick and plain tile roof, protected by an enclosed garden. On the western side of the house lies a patio area that opens onto lawns with views across the surrounding farmland. There is a gravel parking area and brick outbuilding on the eastern side of the house.
