Description

An exceptional development opportunity has emerged (subject to necessary consents) to acquire a unique site in one of East Sussex's most sought-after locations. Situated just off New Road and moments from the historic town of Rye, this 5,632 sqm parcel of land includes the former outdoor swimming pool site of Freda Gardham Community School, along with additional adjoining land, offering significant development potential.

The site enjoys panoramic views across open countryside, the River Rother and towards the charming medieval town of Rye.

Located directly behind The Rye Centre of Creative Excellence, an established creative hub with over 30 artist studios, gallery space, and events venue, the site is perfectly positioned for a variety of development opportunities. Nearby amenities include Rye Rugby and Football Club, further enhancing the appeal of this location for residential, creative, or mixed-use development.

Access is currently provided via the track which runs from New Road alongside the former school and is shared by cyclists and dog walkers. Whilst this is the current access route, continued use cannot be guaranteed.

Rye itself is a cultural gem on the south coast, known for its famed for its cobbled streets, local galleries and boutiques, thriving arts scene and rich heritage. The town also benefits from excellent transport links and a strong tourism market, making this an ideal investment location.

Demand for plots far exceeds supply and by selling direct to end users we deliver the best outcome for all parties - landowners receive maximum value for their land while buyers secure their dream home, built to their own specification and delivered for a fixed price by a leading, local contractor.

A self build, custom or bespoke-build home are now realistic options for many house buyers, with mortgages of up to 80% LTV for the 'plot+build' available from a host of mainstream lenders.
