Balls Cross, Petworth, West Sussex, GU28

An exciting opportunity to purchase a motor repair workshop with ancillary building and large area of hardstanding with development potential, set in a pleasant village Location with fine countryside views . Total approximately 0.25 acres.

DESCRIPTION
Scammells Garage is currently a motor repair workshop with ancillary building and following an architect’s design report, we believe it has potential for change of use/redevelopment subject to planning permission. Total building footprint exceeds 4,000 sq.ft. and it sits on a quarter of an acre plot. The architect has indicated potential for a house, cottage and some office space. The site is also a former fuel station and there has been a preliminary environment risk assessment carried out.

The site benefits from a large hardstanding with parking for multiple vehicles currently and it is pleasantly located on the edge of the South Downs National Park which backs onto the Leconfield Estate. Therefore any new dwelling would look out onto rural views.

The site is available as a whole or a joint venture partnership would be considered.
