DESCRIPTION: This easily accessible and well-maintained mixed woodland of approximately 10 acres (to be verified), that also includes some beautiful ancient woodland areas, some of which currently encompass an old deep ancient pond which could possibly be enhanced in the future to become a charming and tranquil private carp fishing site.

This mature and in part possibly harvestable circa 10 acres of mixed woodland has the benefit of what is considered good vehicle right of way access of the large layby off the A264 at Oak Hill near Ashurst train station.

Furthermore, the woodland which has been well maintained by the present owners and also a main internal off-road vehicle track access leading to a large central open area within the woodland, which could be possibly considered ideal for a private camping or glamping site subject to planning.

There has already been a felling licence applied for, so for any potential purchaser looking to perhaps harvest some of the woodland from this site, there may now be potential for planning permission to be granted for an accompanying wooden building to compliment the felling.

This site also has a wide variety of wild animals roaming through, including deer, fox, pheasant to name but a few on just one brief visit alone. Therefore, any potential purchaser looking for a quiet relaxing wooded spot to appreciate the beauty of nature, this could surely be considered a little oasis to own for that particular use alone.

Although, there is some ancient woodland, there is a significant amount of methodically planted mixed variety woodland that could possibly be considered suitable for harvesting, subject to the correct felling licences.

The current mixed woodland comprises of a wide selection of tree species, including Oak, Ash, Birch, Hazel, Alder, Mixed Pine, Wild Cherry, Aspen, Rowan, Black Poplar, Walnut, Holly, Field Maple, Douglas Fir, Sessile Oak, Corsican Pine, Mixed Conifers and others.

LOCATION: This circa attractive 10 acres of mixed woodland, is located off the Watch Oak Hill layby off the A264 and not very far form Ashurst train station near Speldhurst and within 3 miles of Tunbridge Wells.
The woodland site is easily accessible by vehicle with a further vehicle right of way access to the woodland from the layby and then there is a further forestry off rad track which leads to its open area centre section.

SPECIAL NOTE: Although there is a public footpath that cuts through only a small section of low corner area of the woodlands bottom boundary, the land is predominantly not affected by any rights of way.

VIEWING: Strictly by appointment with the agents during daylight hours.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

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

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    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
