Formally the dairy buildings of Ruffyns Farmhouse, The Old Dairy has full planning permission (Ashford Borough Council PA/2022/2099) for the demolition of the existing main building to create a stunning 260m2 (2,800ft2) house and a 42m2 (450ft2) detached garage designed by the award-winning firm RX Architects. There is a further ragstone building on the site which would be suitable for conversion to ancillary accommodation subject to the necessary planning permission.

The Old Dairy is south facing and located on the outskirts of Aldington village close to St Martin’s Church, with far-reaching views across the area of outstanding natural beauty and Romney Marsh to the south and the Kent Downs to the north. The site measures approximately 1.06 acres, with several mature fruit, nut and native trees, a large area of lawn and a pond.

The village has a popular pub, butcher/grocery store, post office and primary school.

Alex Cornwallis at BTF Partnership commented: “Located on the edge of the village, this is a unique opportunity to build a modern home on a terrific plot. The popular coastal town of Hythe is six miles away and Ashford, with its high-speed rail link to St Pancras (37 minutes) is only six miles to the west. This is an exciting opportunity for a buyer looking to put their own stamp on an architect designed home which is ready to build.”
