Description
A detached building on the outskirts of Newhaven, offered as a development project with full planning permission to convert it into a two-bedroom home. The approved scheme provides a kitchen and dining area and a separate lounge on the ground floor, with two double bedrooms and a shower room above.
The plans also show gardens around the property and off-road parking. Planning documents and approved drawings are available through the South Downs National Park Authority under application SDNP/25/03072/FUL. Buyers should review the consent and establish the work required to complete the conversion.

46out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a substantial conversion project rather than a finished home: the interiors shown are unfinished, with a basic sink and exposed services, while the flint-and-stone exterior and pitched tiled roof appear intact in the photographs. The standout opportunity is the stated full planning permission and proposed plans for a two-bedroom dwelling, with gardens on all sides and off-road parking; the overgrown plot also offers scope to improve the outdoor setting. The £150,000–£175,000 guide price cannot yet be judged against local £/sqf because floor area is missing. Limited photo coverage makes the renovation estimate further provisional.
Key opportunities
- Use the approved two-bedroom conversion plans as a starting point for creating a complete home, including the proposed kitchen/diner, lounge and shower room.
- The existing flint-and-stone building and pitched tiled roof provide a distinctive exterior shell to work with.
- Gardens on all sides and proposed off-road parking offer scope to shape the outdoor space alongside the conversion.
Key risks
- The unfinished interiors and £90,000–£160,000 works range make this a full conversion programme, with substantially more budget and coordination than a cosmetic refresh.
- The photographs cannot establish the condition of concealed building elements; verify the existing structure and required building work against the approved scope.
