Swanborough, Lewes BN7 3PF

Description

Situated in the sought-after Swanborough area on the outskirts of Lewes, this parcel of just over an acre of land offers a rare opportunity to acquire a paddock that has been used for grazing and equestrian purposes for many years.

Bordered by mature trees and hedging, and abutting the grounds of the historic Swanborough Manor, the site enjoys a peaceful and semi-rural setting while being within easy reach of Lewes town centre.

The land lies within the South Downs National Park, an area renowned for its outstanding natural beauty, walking routes, and protected countryside.

Its location not only benefits from far-reaching views and a tranquil atmosphere, but also easy access to local bridleways and outdoor recreational spaces, making it an ideal setting for equestrian or leisure use.

With its established history as a paddock, the land is well-suited for continued equestrian use or hobby farming. Alternatively, subject to the necessary planning consents, it may offer potential for other uses, including the possibility of future development given its position adjacent to existing residential land and properties.

The relevant planning authority for this land is the South Downs National Park Authority (SDNPA), and prospective purchasers are encouraged to contact them directly for guidance on potential applications.

Additional oversight may be required from the Lewes District Council depending on the intended use.

This is a unique chance to secure a rarely available piece of land in this desirable part of Sussex, combining tranquil countryside views with convenient access to the historic market town of Lewes, local bridleways, and the protected landscapes of the South Downs National Park.

About Oakfield, Lewes

64 High Street, Lewes, BN7 1XG

Our superb team in Lewes has vast knowledge of lettings and sales, with decades of combined local industry experience. So whether you're renting, letting out, buying or selling, we're ideally placed to help.

Professional yet friendly, our staff's huge expertise makes us much more than just another estate agent.

Excellent advice is underpinned by a deep knowledge of the industry in general, and this part of the world specifically. Our deep-seated local knowledge is partly down to our own love of our neck of the woods; we've all lived and worked in Lewes and around for years. And it's a running gag that we've been into most properties in the area at one time or another over the years.

The welcome is as warm as it is genuine - you'll notice the great atmosphere the second you walk through the door.

We're all about forging long-term relationships with everyone we work with, tailoring our services to suit individual requirements and doing more than perhaps the competition would to be there at every stage with our support, whatever you need us for.
