DESCRIPTION: An exciting opportunity to own a large existing luxury property set in an elevated semi-rural position with planning to build a large adjoining annex that is already well underway. Furthermore, the property has circa 1.33 acres which are mainly located to the side of the property, which offer a perfect chance to build either a one further luxury property or a number of smaller boutique properties (subject to necessary planning permissions) which will afford stunning views. The land appears to be in the development zone, has footpaths and is within a 30mph zone and a natural infill site, as well as being confirmed as a possibility subject to planning from our in-house development experts.
There is also planning in place for a large detached garage complex / barn workshop with storage over that is also under construction.
As this site enjoys uninterrupted panoramic rural views from the rear and is set well back from the road in a quiet semi-rural location, any property or properties built in this potential development area will command premium selling prices, especially as they are within only a short drive of Stonegate and Etchingham mainline train stations.
PLEASE NOTE: The property is being sold as is and with the extension and garage complex at their current stages. However, if and when finished, this single large luxury property should have an end value of circa £1.6 million in our opinion based on recent sales.
A second option would be to finish off the first large property and sell that off without the large side potential development garden area for circa £1,200,000 to £1,300,000 as a finished project and then develop the side garden with a luxury plot / plots, thus obtaining a prime development site for a low overall purchase price with planning obtained at a later date.
