About
PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEO BEFORE BOOKING AN APPOINTMENT A substantial 6 bedroom family house of 3650 ft.² plus several outbuildings and garages occupying a sunny and secluded 0.5 acre plot with various consents for extending and alteration to create an annex, substantial garage, on the town's southern edge close to countryside and virtually opposite the Fox & Hounds pub.
The current owner bought the property 32 years ago which originally comprised a detached bungalow and in that time has transformed the property into a fabulous family home.
The versatile accommodation still has great potential for further enlargement if required (See Planning section below) and would ideally suit an extended family or those looking for a home that could also provide an annex and home space.
There are several planning consents that are valid and expired for extending, altering the house to create an annex, a loft conversion and replacement of the detached single garage with a bigger 7m x 6m garage.
(See notes below) The house is accessed over a private driveway on the corner of Hurstwood Lane and Fox Hill with two sets of electric iron gates which lead into a substantial parking area and up to the two separate garages.
The gardens are predominantly situated to the south and eastern side of the house and have been laid out with meticulous lawns, ornamental ponds, a large timber chalet, a gazebo and evening sun terraces, all of which enjoys a high degree of privacy.
Planning: Mid Sussex DC granted 08.12.2021 (ref: DM/21/3647 for 3 years) to extend and convert existing single garage (north side) and conservatory to form a self contained annex.
Granted 08.09.2020 (ref:DM/20/0355 - expired) for part conversion of loft space to create one very large bedroom suite Granted: (ref: HH/07/00640) to replace the detached single garage with a much larger 7m x 6m double garage – this original consent included an extension to the front of the house to create 2 1st floor bedrooms on the south side which were completed and therefore this planning consent is extant (never needs renewing) Local planning: MSDC have recently granted consent to build 375 new houses and a new primary school on the land to the north of Hurstwood Lane – more information to follow
