Highfield is a rare, versatile rural parcel set in an outstanding countryside location close to Ashdown Forest and South Downs. The site extends to approximately 2.5 acres and is arranged as fenced paddocks, a timber stable block with hardstanding and a substantial steel-framed barn, offering immediate practical use for equestrian or agricultural activity.
The steel-framed building has prior consent for a canine hydrotherapy business, and there is separate planning consent for a temporary dwelling whose occupancy is restricted to that business. Those consents provide clear commercial potential but also limit residential use unless permissions change—an important consideration for buyers seeking a permanent home on-site.
The property is approached via a private gated entrance and benefits from plentiful parking and good broadband in an affluent, low-crime area. The buildings and land present straightforward opportunities for continued equestrian use, small-scale commercial activity, or sympathetic conversion/upgrade, but will require maintenance and possible refurbishment to suit new purposes.
Quiet, private and genuinely rural, this holding will suit purchasers wanting land and facilities for horses, small agricultural enterprise or adaptable commercial use. Buyers should note the planning restrictions on the temporary dwelling and allow for improvement costs to bring buildings to a desired standard.
