  • Occupying a very desirable location on the edge of Shipley within 8 miles of Horsham & 5.2 miles of Billingshurst.
The rarely available self-build rural building plot was recently granted consent (DC/25/1095) for demolition of the existing bungalow and construction of a replacement dwelling with detached carport/storage building and alterations to the vehicle access and set on an overall plot of in excess of a quarter of an acre. Additional adjoining land may potentially be available by separate negotiation. There are fine rural views in particular to the East, South-East and North-East including from parts to the South Downs and to Shipley Windmill.

Set on the edge of the renowned Knepp Castle Estate with its world-famous rewilding project and diverse habitats with many miles of wonderful walks and optional safari tours and stays plus the Wilding kitchen and shop, along with Shipley Windmill and the 12th Century parish church in the peaceful yet accessible part of West Sussex. Benefiting from wonderful walking and recreational opportunities to the surrounding countryside including with the Countryman Inn being a short walk down the lane, the plot is convenient for access to the old market town of Horsham (c. 8 miles) with its comprehensive range of shops, restaurants and entertainment facilities as well as mainline railway station. Billingshurst to the West is approximately 5.2 miles and also offers a good range of facilities as well as mainline station.

The plot adjoins Smithers Hill Lane a minor country lane to the North of Countryman Lane and is to be accessed by a proposed driveway with parking and turning adjoining a consented part timber framed carport/store. The proposed dwelling includes mellow elevations of brick with sections of contrasting tile hanging to the first-floor dormer windows under a pitched clay tiled roof and incorporating proposed photovoltaic panels to the roof.
