Description

This property presents a compelling renovation and investment opportunity, featuring a substantial plot that includes an adjacent smaller plot, both of which come with planning permission for a large two-storey detached dwelling. With generous gardens planned, this project offers a chance to create a spacious home in an idyllic setting. Nestled on the South Downs, the land benefits from breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside, including landmarks such as Peacehaven and Seaford Head. The area is characterized by a network of bridleways and footpaths that provide easy access to the outdoors, making it ideal for nature enthusiasts. Additionally, the property’s proximity to the South Downs National Park enhances its appeal for buyers seeking tranquility combined with outdoor recreational activities. Located approximately 8 miles from Brighton, residents will enjoy convenient access to frequent commuter trains that reach London in about 52 minutes. Brighton's vibrant urban lifestyle, complete with a marina, shops, and dining options, is easily accessible while still allowing for a peaceful suburban living experience. Furthermore, nearby Newhaven provides ferry services to Dieppe, France, adding another layer of convenience for travelers. The proposed design for the future dwelling includes thoughtful spaces such as a study, inner hall, lounge, kitchen/dining room, playroom or fifth bedroom, utility room, four bedrooms with an en-suite in the master suite and a family bathroom. Ample parking is also part of the plan along with expansive south-facing gardens that will enhance outdoor living experiences. This property not only promises immediate enjoyment but also holds significant potential for long-term value appreciation in an increasingly desirable location.
