About this listing
LOT 3 GUIDE PRICE: £800,000 to £875,000
• Exciting development opportunity to purchase a fabulous small country estate complex of character detached barns / outbuildings, set down near the very end of a long private lane, with three of the four detached outbuildings having already been granted planning permission to convert.
• The four detached barns forming this character semi rurally located complex, come with associated land that presently extends to circa ½ an acre (to be verified)
• The first detached single-story barn has now been fully converted into a unique and characterful holiday letting cottage comprising of two double bedrooms, a large bespoke open plan kitchen / dining room / lounge, as well as a shower room (all with eco insulation and other green eco credentials)
• The second detached character single story barn also has permission to convert into a holiday letting cottage (but will be sold currently unconverted)
• The third detached single story building is a three bay cart shed and has existing planning to be converted into a games room, but could probably also obtain planning for use as a studio holiday letting unit
• The fourth and largest detached barn unit is arranged over two floors, which is is considered to be a classic beautiful Sussex barn, which in our professional opinion could also obtain permission for conversion into a residential house, as well as a further holiday letting unit.
• Located near the end of its own private lane away from busy traffic
• Pleasant semi-rural setting, yet within easy commuting distance of Haywards Heath and Lewes towns with their mainline train stations, making this country estate barn complex perfect for London commuters or holiday investment buyers
• The Cart Shed has approved planning consent to create a bespoke games room or tranquil Pilates studio, presenting a wonderful opportunity to enhance the lifestyle appeal of the property and holiday rentals
• Further level lawns associated with the barn & outbuilding complex
• This small country estate of four detached barns, allows potential buyers to create a lucrative holiday letting complex, with additional options to even have a main barn as a residential house and planning to be changed over the whole site to offer multi-generational living, or a home office arrangement (subject to planning)
• Situated within a convenient drive of the mainline train stations of Lewes and Haywards Heath, making the property ideal for London buyers and holiday letting clients in the future depending how the development is taken forward
