Rare South Downs Opportunity! 0.34 Acre Plot with Exceptional Potential & Unrivalled Countryside Backdrop

King & Chasemore are delighted to present this truly unique and rarely available Colt Bungalow, set within an impressive and secluded plot of approximately 0.34 acres, backing directly onto open fields with the breathtaking South Downs National Park beyond.

Built circa 1950s and privately owned by the same family for decades, this charming non-standard construction property is offered to the market for the first time in many years. Requiring cash purchasers due to its timber construction, the home represents an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a project with significant scope and long-term value.

The existing accommodation extends to approximately 1,540 sq ft (142.1 m2) and is arranged over a single level. Internally, the property offers three generous double bedrooms, including a principal suite with ensuite shower room, a spacious living room with bay window and fireplace, separate dining room, kitchen, family bathroom, and welcoming entrance hall.

The home further benefits from double glazing and gas-fired central heating.
Externally, the property sits within a mature, private and beautifully established plot, framed by an array of trees, shrubs and planting, offering both seclusion and scope. Accessed via a five-bar gate from Coombe Road, a sweeping driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to the garage. A further rear access track connects to Newham Lane, offering flexibility and development potential.

This is an extraordinary opportunity for redevelopment, whether to replace the current dwelling with a substantial modern home or potentially explore the construction of multiple dwellings, all subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents.

A truly special offering in a highly sought-after location.

Living here offers the perfect balance of countryside tranquillity and coastal convenience, making it one of West Sussex’s most desirable locations.
