DETAILS The site occupies a discreet and attractive position on the edge of Rusper, north of Horsham and west of Crawley. Combining a peaceful village setting with convenient access to surrounding towns, Gatwick Airport and the wider road network, the location offers an appealing balance of countryside surroundings and accessibility. The generous grounds offer the opportunity to create a small collection of family homes within an established village context.

The property is offered as a whole or in two separate lots, providing flexibility for purchasers seeking either the consented development opportunity or a larger landholding with possible longer-term potential.

Lot 1 extends to approximately 0.64 acres and benefits from planning consent for four new family homes, comprising two two-bedroom semi-detached houses and two four-bedroom detached houses, all with parking. The consent also provides for the refurbishment and extension of the existing three-bedroom detached house, offering the opportunity to improve and enlarge the property alongside the new development. Together, the scheme provides a mix of house sizes, with five residential properties upon completion.

Lot 2 comprises additional land extending to approximately 8.85 acres, available by separate negotiation. This land offers purchasers the opportunity to acquire a larger holding alongside Lot 1 and may have potential for future development, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions and other statutory consents. Purchasers should satisfy themselves as to its suitability for any intended use; no future planning consent is assured.

An overage provision will form part of the sale in relation to any additional residential units approved beyond the existing consented scheme. The detailed terms, including the duration, payment trigger and basis of calculation, are to be agreed between the parties.
