DESCRIPTION: A fabulous financial opportunity to purchase 1.5 acres (to be verified ) od prime future residential / commercial development land being offered for sale at a huge discounted price in order to obtain a quick sale.
Already having been granted planning permission for a large nursing home that has now lapsed, which clearly shows that this land is viable for a huge value increase with planning permission re-instated or submitted to obtain residential or commercial planning development, making this land ideal for property speculators looking for an excellent return on their investment.
The area has already had extensive residential development granted close by.
The vendors are also offering to pay for future access across the site to the land behind within the planning design, thus allowing for further income return on the land investment, thus making this land purchase / investment opportunity even more attractive.
LOCATION: The land is situated off Marshfoot Lane Hailsham opposite new large developments and already identified and granted commercial planning permission previously for a nursing home, which has now lapsed, but clearly could be re-instated or replaced with residential planning for 9 to 25 residential units depending on the chosen design application.
The Hailsham town centre is within walking distance with its extensive amenities, hence a perfect location for all types of development subject to planning.
