Land at, Handford Way, Plummers Plain, West Sussex

DESCRIPTION
2 parcels of land for sale measuring approximately
0.9 acres* off Handford Way, accessed via a short
private road serving 5 dwellings. The land is currently
lightly wooded and will be sold with the benefit of
rights of way and utility connections to Handford Way
(private road), subject to contribution to future
maintenance costs. Handford Way forms part of a
small cluster of dwellings close to the junction of the
B2110 and Hammerpond Road. It is approximately 2
miles from Handcross Village, the M23/A23 and 6
miles to Horsham and Haywards Heath.
By way of background, the land for sale is part of the
curtilage of The Warren, a large country house built in
1895, converted into flats in 1965 and partly
belonging to the vendor of the 2 plots. The whole is
part of The Warren Estate, extending to
approximately 40 acres (until 1952 650 acres).

PLANNING
The land is adjacent to a larger parcel of land which
secured outline planning consent for residential
development in 1963, subsequent to which 5
dwellings were built and now front the made up
Handford Way. The land now for sale is currently
beyond any defined residential settlement boundary
and is classified in the Horsham District Council Local
Plan as being land in the Countryside and within the
High Weald National Landscape (AONB). As such,
land use is currently restrictive. However, the land is
situated close to this previously developed cul de sac,
characterised by individual dwellings in spacious
plots. It may therefore have some potential for
development, subject to appropriate consents. We
would direct interested persons to the recently
updated National Planning Policy Guidance 2026,
that implements the Government’s policy aimed at
boosting the supply of housing.

Note 1: The landowner is pursuing a planning
application for residential development of nearby
