DESCRIPTION: Exceptional development opportunity for 12.104 acres located in a current possible development zone or area where residential development is occurring close by and being located directly behind housing in the village area of Westham Pevensey, which also includes a semi-detached Victorian two storey house with a wide side access to the land behind, as well as a large detached agricultural building.

This potential development land can be accessed also in the future potentially from other developments moving in parallel towards this site location, in addition to its current road access.

Furthermore, the land and large detached agricultural outbuilding would also suit an equestrian enthusiast as well as a smallholding purchaser.

LOCATION: Situated only a short walk of the Westham village amenities and Pevensey, as well as being only a short drive of the coast and the mainline station of Polegate and other local lines for London.

The town of Eastbourne is also easily accessible by bus or car and offers excellent shopping and leisure facilities, including golf and tennis, as well as sailing.

There are also bridleways and cycling routes nearby, as well as the South Downs National Park.

Depending upon educational requirements, there are numerous reputable teaching institutions to choose from, including Eastbourne College, Bede’s and Battle Abbey to name but a few.

OUTSIDE: This character semi-detached 2 bedroomed house has a small front garden, a long rear garden and a wide five bar gated access leading to 12.104 acres and a large detached agricultural barn with stables inside and storage for plant machinery or livestock.

LARGE DETACHED AGRICULTURAL BUILDING: Approximately 1400 square feet footprint with sections for horses or livestock.

12.104 ACRES: This runs a long way parallel behind the existing residential housing and due to it being raised on a slope and in line with other current residential development occurring nearby, there is a strong chance this land may well have future residential development potential in part at least.
