Slaugham Lane, Warninglid
£1,200,000

Description

DARE TO DREAM! A rare opportunity to build your dream home on a secluded 3-acre site with stunning views, between the West Sussex villages of Slaugham and Warninglid. Access to the A23 is no more than a 5-minute drive away, providing a quick and easy link to Brighton, the South Coast, Gatwick International Airport, and the M25 London orbital motorway.

Detailed plans have been approved by Mid-Sussex District Council under application number DM/26/0089 for the demolition of the existing cottage, stables and steel-frame barn, to be replaced by an impressive contemporary 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom country house, with an adjacent pool annexe that includes a kitchen, living room, shower and changing room, as well as a gymnasium. In addition, an existing modern 3-car garage with a sizeable room above stands to one side of the new entrance driveway and turning circle.

The gentle Gothic revival architectural style of the substantial main house extends to 436 sqm and offers an abundance of light throughout the spacious accommodation, including: a beautiful hallway, an open-plan kitchen and dining room, a living area with a dramatic vaulted ceiling, a formal reception, a family room, and a purpose-built home cinema. The principal bedrooms have their own 'walk-out' balconies overlooking open views across the land.

Peaceful and verdant vistas surround the property's completely secluded grounds. The interior décor and finishes of the house will be to the new owner's individual taste, and we have provided a small selection of computer-generated visuals to give a flavour of what might be achieved.

Construction is traditional, with cavity block and brick elevations and a block-and-beam ground-floor slab, with insulated, suspended first floors. The main roof covering will be clay tile, with Crittall-style metal double glazing. The completed property will be highly sustainable, with modern heating and insulation systems, solar, and smart home technology. Water and mains electricity are already in place, and a new wastewater system has been incorporated into the project.

The 3.2-acre plot, bordered to the east by bluebell woodland, is currently grassed and has many established specimen trees that surround the house on all sides.

This is a truly spectacular and unique opportunity to acquire a beautiful plot on which to build your ultimate forever home.
