Summary - THE OLD STABLES, GROVE HILL BN27 4HG
1 bed 1 bath Detached
Semi-rural plot with garage and gym consent, ideal for a conversion investor.
Planning consent WD/2025/0726/F for 3,466 sq ft residential conversion
A rare development opportunity in a semi-rural hamlet: The Old Stables benefits from full planning consent (WD/2025/0726/F) to convert an existing single-storey workshop/offices into a substantial 3,466 sq ft single dwelling with attached annexe. The plot of about 0.4 acre includes a separate outbuilding with consent to form a detached double garage and an adjoining gym/home office — ideal for a home business or leisure space.
The building is characterful externally, built of brick, flint and timber under a corrugated roof, set back behind two driveway approaches with ample gravel parking and mature boundary planting. The site is peaceful and private, with low local crime and countryside surroundings; Hellingly village is about 2.3 miles and Polegate station about 7 miles, so the location suits buyers wanting rural seclusion with reasonable access to rail links.
This is a conversion and refurb project: the consent allows residential use but the property will require comprehensive internal fit-out and servicing to achieve the approved dwelling. Mobile and broadband are average and the property is an isolated/hamlet setting, so buyers should allow for utility upgrades, finishes, and landscaping to complete the conversion.
Suitable for an investor or purchaser seeking a substantial single-storey home with annexe potential, the site offers flexibility — large rooms (approx. 13 rooms total once converted), extensive parking and outbuildings. Materials and external character give scope to retain rustic features while creating a high-spec interior, subject to the purchaser’s design and budget decisions.
