An “incredibly rare” new-build property in the South Downs National Park has been completed and is now on the market for £3.2 million.
Situated in Friston – just three miles from Eastbourne – Hunter’s Moon replaces a previous property, increasing its footprint from 1,500 square feet to 5,761 square feet.
“Not only are new houses extremely difficult to get permission for in one of the country’s most protected landscapes, but this one’s design has been described as “exceptional” by the South Downs National Park planning team," said a spokesman advertising the sale.
The property has been “built to the highest of specifications and experts believe that the planning achievement would be hard to repeat”, he said.
The property has four huge bedroom suites, a gated driveway, a garden and a heated four car garage with studio.
The property is in a “sensational” location, next to the white cliffs of the Seven Sisters, Cuckmere Valley and Friston Forest and a train ride from London Victoria.
It sits in England’s sunniest place, benefiting from a unique microclimate protected by the South Downs and boasting an average of 189 hours of sunshine a year.
It is surrounded by vineyards and has six golf clubs within 15 minutes.
James Deamer, associate of Taylor Made Coastal and Country, which is marketing the property, said: “Having sold some of the most impressive homes along the south coast, Hunter’s Moon is without question one of the finest I have seen come to the market in recent years.
“I have long admired the owner’s commitment to quality and meticulous attention to detail, and Hunter’s Moon represents the very best of their work - a house that must be experienced to be fully appreciated, combining elegant design, exceptional craftsmanship, and a superb position within the South Downs National Park.
“It is rare for such a build within the South Downs National Park, making Hunter’s Moon a truly one-of-a-kind home.”
The property is on the market for £3.2m.
