This is a substantial freehold plot with planning permission (Lewes District Ref. LW/23/0187) for a large two-storey detached family home. The consented scheme provides generous living space including lounge, kitchen/dining, study, playroom/bed five, four bedrooms, ensuite, family bathroom, utility, double garage and extensive south-facing gardens. The site sits opposite the South Downs National Park with elevated outlooks towards Peacehaven, Seaford Head and surrounding downland.
The plot reads as about one acre, gated with mature conifer shelter belts on both sides offering strong privacy and wind protection. Vehicular access is direct from the lane and the land is largely level, making it straightforward to build to the approved drawings. A smaller adjoining separate plot is also included in the sale and forms part of the overall development opportunity.
This location will suit buyers seeking countryside living close to Brighton (about 8 miles) with commuter rail links to London. Practical points to note: the land is semi-rural so mains services and site connections should be confirmed before purchase; the site will require a full build programme and associated costs. Broadband speeds are reported as slow and mobile signal average, which may affect home-working without alternative connectivity solutions.
Prospective purchasers should review the full planning documentation on Lewes District Council’s website, check any planning conditions, and allow for build costs, service connections and landscaping. The plot offers a rare chance to deliver a large, contemporary family house in a private elevated setting beside the South Downs.
