Why buy a building plot in Sussex

South Downs National Park, the Chichester Harbour National Landscape, and the High Weald National Landscape protect a large part of Sussex, which keeps the countryside you are buying into as it is. Building or converting inside a protected landscape needs more care, and inside a National Park the park authority, not the council, decides planning.

1,535 people were on Sussex's council self-build registers at October 2024. Councils must grant enough permissions to meet that demand, so registering with your council as well as with us is worth doing.

Planning is decided by 13 councils in Sussex, so rules on agricultural occupancy conditions and barn conversions vary by district. Our guides cover what to check before you offer.
