1 / 512.42-acre horticultural nursery for sale in Birdham, West Sussex, with approximately 5.85 acres under glass, established growing infrastructure, production equipment and worker accommodation.
The principal freehold nursery extends to 12.42 acres, including approximately 5.85 acres under glass, standing-out fields and established growing infrastructure. The estate has been developed for high-volume plant production and includes climate-control systems, irrigation, automatic ventilation and shading.
A 500,000-gallon reservoir harvests rainwater from the greenhouse roofs, while recent investment has included new climate-control and water-filtration equipment, sprinkler repairs, floor levelling, weed-control cover, new shading and wider infrastructure improvements.
Eight caravans provide on-site seasonal worker accommodation.
The sale includes two complete planting lines for pack and pot bedding production. The equipment comprises pack and pot dispensers, bale breakers, tray fillers, transplanters and associated conveyors, providing an incoming purchaser with a proven production platform.
Additional adjoining land is available separately:
- Approximately 1.95 acres, comprising a four-bedroom bungalow with an agricultural tie.
- 8.46 acres, with direct access and visibility from the A-road. The site is suitable for a variety of uses and was previously home to a farm shop and café operation.
Map: The principal nursery is shown in blue. The adjoining 1.95-acre parcel with the four-bedroom bungalow and agricultural tie is shown in yellow, while the adjoining 8.46-acre site is shown in red.
Managing director Jan Devos said: “This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-invested horticultural site with extensive glasshouse space, established utilities, accommodation and production equipment already in place. We have worked hard to modernise the estate and its systems, and it is now ready for a new owner to unlock its next phase of value.”
The sale follows Devos’s planned retirement.
