Description



**Guide price £700,000 - £800,000**
A residential development site on Scratchings Lane. The farm includes consent for the change of use of an existing agricultural building to create a single dwelling. 2 agricultural buildings, pastureland, and a small area of woodland, all set within a rural landscape. Approximately 12.65 acres.

DESCRIPTION
The farm is offered for sale as a whole and represents a rare opportunity to acquire a development project with land in a highly sought after and peaceful rural setting. To the north, the property enjoys far reaching countryside views that truly need to be seen to be fully appreciated.
The principal agricultural building—granted Class Q permission for residential conversion—comprises a steel framed barn with timber cladding, incorporating a closed storage section and a partially constructed steel framed extension of a similar footprint. The approved plans provide for a single storey dwelling of approximately 138.4 sq m, including a mezzanine level suitable for a study or playroom. The current layout proposes four bedrooms (one with en suite), a family bathroom, utility room, entrance hall, and an open plan kitchen/dining/living area.
A second building is positioned to the north: a concrete framed barn measuring approximately 15.5m x 9m, with part fibre cement cladding to the walls and roof.
Both buildings are of a condition consistent with their age and agricultural use.

PLANNING
The farm benefits from approved planning consent under Chichester District Council application reference KD/25/00717/PA3Q.
Proposal: Prior Notification application for change of use of agricultural building to residential use (C3) with associated operational development at Slifehurst Wood Farm to provide 1 no. dwelling.
Further details and copies of the planning documentation are available from the agents upon request. A Stage 2 contamination report is currently being arranged and will be provided once completed.
