An exciting proposed residential development for five cottages within the popular village of Washington within the South Downs National Park with its wonderful walking and recreational opportunities.

The proposed building plot is to be accessed from the historic main village street and with planning consent having been recommended for approval on 8th May 2025 under application SDNP/24/03835/FUL for the grant of five attractive attached dwellings with traditional part brick, stone, tile hung and weather-boarded elevations under clay tiled roofs and with private gardens and parking spaces to each cottage. The proposed development is subject to a variety of planning conditions and completion of a Section 106 Legal Agreement including for water neutrality requirements – where applicable - and which agreement is in the process of being completed. One of the planning conditions requires Plot 4 to be an affordable home for renting to a rural worker based in the National Park.

As part of the proposed sale of the site by the Wiston Estate, the Estate is seeking a contractor to purchase the freehold of the main part of site and to enter into a build contract for Plot 4, with the freehold then being sold back to the Estate and along with the communal parking and landscaped areas together with six other residential parking spaces being retained by the Estate for existing Estate houses which border the site. These parking spaces and the communal driveway is to be constructed by the purchaser developer of the site in compliance with the conditions of the consent and any other building regulation or other approval and prior to the occupation of the remaining four units, the developer will hand back these areas (as approximately shaded pink on the plan) to the Estate with the works having been completed. As part of the sale and agreed build contract for these areas, the Estate will grant full rights of way over the communal estate road for the four units and together with entering into a management and service contract for maintenance of the communal areas.
