This is a prime opportunity to acquire a well-located residential development site with full planning permission in place. The site comprises two distinct parcels forming part of a wider residential redevelopment of the former St Joseph’s Convent School on Old Road East, Gravesend.

The first parcel has permission for the construction of seven new-build apartments, including six one-bedroom units and one larger two-bedroom unit. These have been sensitively designed to appeal to local buyers and renters, offering efficient layouts and attractive contemporary accommodation.

Opposite, the second parcel consists of a characterful Victorian building with approved plans for conversion into six one-bedroom apartments. The scheme offers the potential to blend heritage architecture with modern internal specifications, enhancing market appeal.

Importantly, the planning consent benefits from no Section 106 or CIL liabilities, significantly reducing upfront costs and improving development margins.

The development sits within an actively progressing residential scheme, with surrounding plots already under construction or completed. This context supports confidence in the scheme’s marketability and end values.

Location

Located on Old Road East in Gravesend, Kent, the development enjoys a prominent setting within a larger master-planned residential regeneration. The site offers convenient access to Gravesend town centre, which provides a range of local amenities, retail, and dining options, as well as a fast train connection to London St Pancras in under 25 minutes via HS1.

Gravesend continues to benefit from strong housing demand, driven by excellent connectivity, ongoing investment in infrastructure, and its growing reputation as a commuter-friendly location with a distinctive local character.

The specific location of the development—opposite each other across the new estate access road—offers logistical simplicity and visual cohesion, enabling phased delivery or coordinated construction.
