Old Hides offers an exciting opportunity to purchase a barn with planning consent for conversion to create a two bedroom home of approximately 740 sq.ft (68.7 sqm) depending on internal wall finishes. The approved plans prepared by Colin & Gavin Humphrey Chartered Architects, allow for an entrance hall, open plan living/dining/kitchen area, ground floor bedroom and mezzanine bedroom.
Outside the plans show a patio area and two parking spaces and the overall land measures about 9.26 acres. There is provision for a treatment plant but the property is off-grid so there is no mains electricity.

Planning
Planning permission was granted by Wealden District Council on 26th November 2021 under reference WD/2021/0736, for the conversion of
the existing barn to a single dwelling including
new access and drive. Prospective purchasers
are advised to make their own enquiries of Wealden District Council. Copies of the approved plans can be found on the Wealden District Council website

The property occupies a picturesque rural position a short distance from the village of Wilmington, renowned for its historic church and priory and for The Long Man, cut into the South Downs. The village offers a range of local services including a village public house with restaurant. Nearby Arlington offers more day-to-day amenities including a church, local shopping, village hall, tea garden with nursery and public house. Larger towns such as Hailsham and Eastbourne provide more comprehensive shopping and service facilities.

Communications links are excellent; Berwick station offers regular direct trains to central London in around 80 minutes, while the A27 gives easy access to the national road and motorway network and to London airports.

The property is currently approached through a five-bar gate over an unmade track leading to the barn, but this access will require to be moved further down the lane. The plans show a patio adjacent to the property and a driveway leading to two parking spaces. The land surrounding the barn offers substantial scope and enjoys panoramic views over the property’s 9.26 acres of level pasture and surrounding countryside.
