Description

A standalone development opportunity within this charming 19th century mews setting, positioned between the historic towns of Battle and Robertsbridge.

AP Estate Agents are proud to present Unit 4 as an individual conversion project, ideal for developers or investors seeking a slightly larger unit with planning permission already granted. While the wider Old Stable Yard has begun its transformation—with five dwellings already completed and occupied—Unit 4 is available independently, offering flexibility for those wishing to purchase a single unit rather than the whole site.

Unit 4 forms part of the original stable yard buildings arranged around an attractive central courtyard. The approved plans (Ref: RR/2024/816/P) outline a well proportioned two bedroom home of 62.5 sq.m, featuring an open plan living area with kitchen/dining space and the added benefit of a courtyard garden.

Unit 4 – Proposed Accommodation

- 62.5 sq.m

- 2 Bedrooms

- Open Plan Living Area

- Kitchen / Dining Space Bathroom

- Courtyard Garden

This unit offers a straightforward, self contained development with clear potential to add value. With planning permission already in place and a characterful rural setting, Unit 4 provides an appealing opportunity for those seeking a manageable project with strong future potential.

A rare chance to secure a single conversion within a historic mews — ideal for buyers looking for a two bedroom layout with outdoor space and scope to create a bespoke home or investment property.

LOCATION

Tucked away in the rolling countryside of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, This development enjoys a wonderfully setting that feels a world apart from the pace of town life. Here, open fields and woodland walks create a sense of calm that is increasingly rare, yet the location remains remarkably well connected for day to day living just off the A21.

Just a short distance away lies Robertsbridge, a charming village with a rich history dating back to the 12th century. Originally built around a Cistercian abbey, the village has grown into a welcoming community with timber framed buildings, independent shops, cafés and a mainline station offering direct services to London. A little further is the historic town of Battle, named after the famous Battle of Hastings in 1066. Its imposing Abbey, characterful high street and selection of eateries make it a favorite destination for both locals and visitors.

Despite its rural feel, the development is ideally placed for access to a number of larger towns. Hastings (11 miles) and Eastbourne (18 miles) offer extensive shopping, seafront attractions and leisure facilities, while Hailsham (12 miles) and Uckfield (14 miles) provide convenient everyday amenities. For those who enjoy a broader choice of boutiques, restaurants and cultural venues, Tunbridge Wells (17 miles) and Brighton (28 miles) are both within easy reach. Gatwick Airport, a major hub for international travel, is approximately 38 miles away.

Families are well served by a selection of respected schools, including Vinehall School, which sits close by, as well as Robertsbridge Community College and several primary schools in the surrounding villages. The area offers a blend of state and independent options, making it a practical choice for households of all ages. For commuters, Robertsbridge Station is just a short drive away, providing direct rail links to London Charing Cross, London Bridge and Waterloo East, with journey times of around 1 hour 15 minutes. This makes the location particularly appealing to those seeking a quieter lifestyle without losing easy access to the City.
