Description
GUIDE PRICE: £300,000
• Approximately 2 acres of land close to the village development zone
• May have future potential for residential development in the long term, as the land has road frontage and a pavement leading into the village, this being classed as a sustainable location
• The land is also NOT located in the AONB, thus is not protected land currently
• Developments have occurred recently only a few meters up the road.
• The current government policies for new sites in sustainable locations could well make this site a viable future option
• The line of site on the road access is wide and clear and some of the land front onto the 30 MPH zone already
• The land can also be used for equine use or for other smallholding agricultural uses if required
• Due to the land having good to strong future development possibilities, there will be an overage being placed on the land by the current owners. For more details, please feel free to contact the agent to discuss.
• Village centre is roughly a few hundred yards from the land
• Herstmonceux village amenities include a doctor’s surgery, restraunts, a post office, a mini supermarket, a coffee shop, a popular pub and a pharmacy, as well as a popular primary school
• The mainline train stations of Polegate and Battle are within only a short drive away, making this location ideal for London commuters
DESCRIPTION: Approximately 2 acres of grazing meadow with exciting prospects possibly for becoming very valuable future residential development land most likely within the mid to long term, subject to planning permission being obtained.
This attractive circa 2 acres of current grazing land has existing road frontage access, with two present points used to date. The land is also fronting onto a council footpath and thus allows pedestrian access to the village centre on a sustainable basis.
The land is also able to be considered more likely for future residential development, as it is located outside the area of AONB (area of outstanding natural beauty). Furthermore, the land is located close to other existing housing and new development land sites.
Although, this land could be purchased as a future land bank for long term development, it would also serve as a perfect pony paddock or a smallholding hobby farmer usage.
The owners will be intending to place an overage on the land for when or if the land is developed for either residential or commercial use. For details of the current overage terms being suggested, please contact the agent.
LAND LAYOUT:
The land can be approached from West End Lane Herstmonceux by gated road frontage entrances that have been used for many decades for livestock, horses and general access to the fields.
The land gently slopes away and is well drained as a result in the winter as well. It is bounded by mature hedging and some trees.
Viewing is strictly by appointment through Neville & Neville
