Planning granted for a large contemporary family home with exceptional countryside views.
Planning permission granted (Ref DM/23/2126) for 478 sqm / 5,140 sqft house
An uncommon opportunity on Hurst Road: a cleared building plot with full planning permission (Ref: DM/23/2126) for a substantial contemporary detached house of 478 sqm / 5,140 sqft, arranged over multiple levels with an integral double garage. The approved design provides generous family accommodation — four reception rooms, five bedrooms and multiple ensuites — set in an elevated position with long countryside views and good privacy from mature boundary planting.
This plot suits a buyer seeking to build a high-spec new home in a very affluent part of Hassocks. The site is freehold and benefits from low local crime rates, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband potential. Local schools include strong independent and state options, and the mainline station is within easy reach, making the location convenient for commuting and family life.
Buyers should note the plot is currently overgrown and irregular in shape; clearance, groundworks and site-specific enquiries will be required before construction. Vehicular access and connections to services are not visibly confirmed in the photo evidence and must be verified. The plot footprint is relatively modest (approx. 0.04 acre reported) so external garden space will be limited despite the elevated outlook.
Overall this is a high-value development plot aimed at purchasers who want to commission a substantial contemporary family residence with excellent views rather than acquire a large grounds estate. It offers strong development potential but requires practical pre-construction checks and preparatory works.
