DESCRIPTION: Currently with planning permission also for a bespoke building plot within its circa 3.5 acres of garden and grounds (WD/2020/1926/O), this good sized three storey five bedroomed detached character cottage has so much to offer.

Apart from being in a sought after semi-rural area on the outskirts of the Upper Dicker Village near Bede's Private School, the property currently benefits from equestrian
attributes, especially considering its location near local bridleways for horse riding.

The existing cottage residence has its accommodation currently arranged over three floors, which comprise of a front reception hall, a cloakroom, a side lobby, a sitting room, a family room / study, a dining room, a kitchen / breakfast room, a utility room, first and second
floor landings, five double bedrooms and a family bathroom / shower room in addition to an ensuite shower room and dressing room to bedroom one.

Outside where there is an attached garage to the main house and driveway leading beyond to the rear grounds.

Beyond the further hardstanding for vehicles are the stables and outbuildings where the proposed development with planning permission is intended to be located.

Even if a purchaser were to divide up the land between the two properties, there are a number of possibilities to ensure each residence will have acreage for a garden and
paddock.

SITUATION: Located near Bede's School and backing onto farmland with far reaching views beyond and within only a short drive of Berwick train station, as well as the Polegate
mainline train station for London Victoria, this property's position could be considered ideal for London and Brighton City commuters. Although Bede's School could be an optimum and obvious choice, depending upon
educational requirements, there are numerous other highly respected teaching institutions that could also be considered, including Eastbourne College, Battle Abbey and Mayfield School for Girls to name but a few.
Excellent shopping facilities can be found at Hailsham, Uckfield, Lewes and Eastbourne should the local stores be unable to cater everyday needs. Leisure pursuits in addition to horse riding, are also well catered for nearby with a number of golf courses, sailing on the coast, extensive country footpaths for rambling and a network
of country lanes for cycling.

councils planning site.

Before the implementation of the planning permission and replacing the existing outbuildings, currently there are useful equestrian / storage outbuildings with stabling etc
Presently in the process of being re roofed by the existing owners.

BUILDING PLOT WITH EXCITING OUTLINE PLANNING FOR A BESPOKE BUNGALOW WITH A WONDERFUL OUTLOOK AND POSITION WHICH IS EXTREMELY RARE TO OBTAIN ON THE OPEN MARKET: The current outline planning permission can be found under reference
WD/2020/1926/O. The fact that it is outline planning, allows any buyer to attach their own input into the final designs and layout. Furthermore, the buyer who acquires the whole site could decide to attach more of the existing land to enhance the build out end value substantially.

The existing detached three storey five bedroomed country cottage could also be enhanced and sold on by any would be developer to cover the majority of the original site purchase or used possibly to finance the build process. Furthermore, present house could lend itself for
conversion after possible additions for terraced cottages, also subject to planning.
