Former Methodist Church in Swanscombe Goes Under the Hammer

The Landsite29 May 2026

Clive Emson Auctioneers is offering the former Swanscombe Methodist Church at 3 Milton Road, Swanscombe, Kent, DA10 0NA, for sale by auction with a guide price of £250,000.

The detached freehold building sits on a prominent corner plot near Swanscombe High Street and local amenities. It has been empty for around two years and is being sold with vacant possession, offering scope for conversion or a new use subject to the necessary consents.

The accommodation includes:

• A main hall with a vaulted ceiling • Meeting rooms and office space • A kitchen • An accessible WC • Basement storage

Possible future uses include continued religious or community use, education, commercial premises or conversion to residential, all subject to planning permission from Dartford Borough Council.

Transport links are a key selling point. Ebbsfleet International is close by, with high-speed services reaching London St Pancras in under 20 minutes, which makes the building of interest to buyers targeting the London commuter belt. The A2 and M25 are also within easy reach, as is Bluewater Shopping Centre, and central London lies around 20 miles to the west.

The lot is presented as a characterful property of a kind that rarely comes to the market, with its flexible potential and accessible guide price likely to appeal to investors, developers and community organisations.
