Description
Located in the established residential area of Patcham, with convenient access to central Brighton and the South Downs, this site presents an excellent development opportunity. Planning Reference - BH2025/01589
The existing property is a three-bedroom 1930s Art Deco semi-detached house, set on a generous plot with off-street parking, garage and a sizeable rear garden with a westerly aspect. The house requires full refurbishment throughout.
Of particular interest to developers, planning permission has been granted for the construction of a separate three-bedroom detached dwelling within the plot, complete with private garden and off-street parking. Architect drawings are available.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a site with consent in place, offering clear potential for redevelopment or enhancement in a well-regarded residential location.
