Description
0.5 acre site with OUTLINE CONSENT FOR 33 FLATS ( No Affordable) and associated Parking. The site comprises a brownfield plot of land within the Newhaven urban settlement boundary on the west side of Railway Road, immediately south of the A259 in central Newhaven, opposite Newhaven Town railway station and some 800m north of Newhaven Harbour railway station and ferry terminal.
Extending to approximately 0.56 acres, it is north/south in orientation, rectangular in shape and flat, and has most recently been used as a storage yard, parking, car dealership and skip hire. It is fenced and has a concrete surface with a small number of temporary buildings/cabins onsite. It has good transport links, and the shops and amenities of Newhaven town centre are around 300m to the West. The area has been subject to significant regeneration in recent years with the completion of 145 homes on the "Parker Pen" site to the southeast and the Thakeham/Southern Housing Group scheme delivering 74 homes in Clifton Road to the south.
