Substantial freehold brownfield plot near Hailsham — offers by 24 June 2025.
Approx. 0.488 acre freehold plot on Hailsham outskirts
An exceptional brownfield development opportunity on the outskirts of Hailsham, offered as a freehold plot of approximately 0.488 acres. The site currently contains a substantial 1970s two‑storey building with later single‑storey extension, lawns and a small parking area. Its size and location close to the town centre and main road links make it well suited to conversion, redevelopment or redevelopment for residential use, subject to obtaining all necessary consents.
The property has existing mains services on site and an EPC rating of C, but interested parties must verify availability and capacity of utilities. The previous use was for respite and office facilities (C2/B1) and any change of use or redevelopment will require planning advice and permissions from Wealden District Council. The building and grounds have been unoccupied for some years; inspection internally is by strict appointment only on specified viewing days.
Practical factors to note: the structure dates from the 1970s and will likely require refurbishment or partial rebuilding to meet modern standards. There is potential for significant uplift through redevelopment given the very large plot and residential setting, but buyers should budget for planning, survey, and remediation where required. Bids are invited by noon on Tuesday 24 June 2025 — this is a timed sale with limited inspection slots.
This site will suit developers, local investors or professional buyers seeking a plot with immediate proximity to Hailsham town centre, good road links to Eastbourne and Lewes, and access to local amenities and schools. Approach with technical due diligence and planning strategy in place to fully realise the site’s potential.
