Polegate, East Sussex, BN26

Land size
0.2 acres

Description

GUIDE PRICE: £65,000

• Land with potential for possible future development (0.196 acres total)

• Potential for either one single house subject to planning or even a pair of semi-detached houses.

• Other potential development opportunities could be for obtaining planning for a number of garages to be built, which has already been done successfully nearby.

• Located on the edge of Polegate near an excellent road network for London and Brighton.

• Polegate mainline train station is also easily accessible.

• There is a pavement directly adjoining the land and a drop curve, which makes the site a sustainable location.

DESCRIPTION: A rare opportunity to purchase a parcel of land with potential for future development subject to planning. This land could easily fit one single house or even a pair of semi-detached houses. Failing planning being granted for housing, there is also potential for planning to be granted for garages, which has already been obtained for the adjoining land.

These types of land parcels with so much future potential rarely come to the market often, so we suggest any interested parties move quickly and submit an offer to avoid missing out.

LOCATION: Situated near the Polegate roundabout and bypass, this parcel of land is situated in a residential setting and within walking distance of Polegate and its facilities. Making it ideal for building on for both garaging and housing subject to planning.
