FANTASTIC BUILDING IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA WITH LINKED FOUR STOREY BLOCK IN PEVENSEY ROAD - POTENTIAL FOR A NUMBER OF USES
Capel-ne-Ferne is a fantastic Grade II Listed building, with an interlinking four-storey block in Pevensey Road. The buildings are set in 1.35 acres and offer potential for a number of alternative uses. The main house retains many original features, including ornate ceilings, with some parts of the building dating back to the 18th Century. The property is linked to 40 Pevensey Road via a rear corridor and has in excess of 90 rooms with scope for a multitude of uses, including wedding venue, hotel or conversion into flats, subject to all necessary consents being obtainable. Planning Permission has, however, been granted for the building to be split into two houses which would create very impressive dwellings.
It is considered that the site and buildings have potential for further development, or extension, subject to all the necessary consents being obtainable. Interested applicants are advised to make their own enquiries regarding future use and development of the site with the Local Planning Authority, the Hastings Borough Council, Aquila House, Breeds Place, Hastings, East Sussex, TN34 3UY.
