Description

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial parcel of agricultural land, situated in an attractive rural position between Wartling and Boreham Street.
The land comprises predominantly grazing meadow and offers considerable scope for agricultural, equestrian or amenity use. It would be well suited to the grazing of livestock and/or the growing of crops, while its attractive setting and far-reaching countryside views may also make it suitable for other rural diversification opportunities, subject to obtaining any necessary planning permissions.
Planning permission is currently being sought for the erection of an agricultural building extending to approximately 4,500 square feet, which is proposed to provide storage for tractors, agricultural machinery and hay. Prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves as to the progress and status of the planning application prior to exchange of contracts.
The land forms Lot 2 of a larger holding which is now being offered separately, with the existing buildings situated elsewhere within the original holding not included within this lot.
The property's position close to the South Downs and the Sussex coast may also offer longer-term potential for rural leisure or glamping uses, subject entirely to the necessary planning consents.

Location: The land is located between Wartling and Boreham Street, within convenient driving distance of the mainline railway stations at Battle and Polegate.
Herstmonceux village is only a few minutes' drive away and provides a useful range of everyday amenities including a post office, pharmacy, doctors' surgery, restaurants, convenience shopping, a popular primary school, public house and coffee shop.
There is also a main bus route providing connections towards Battle, Hailsham, Hastings and Eastbourne.
The land enjoys an attractive countryside setting, with convenient access to the surrounding rural area, the South Downs and the Sussex coast.
