The construction of a new 70-home development in Bexhill-on-Sea is set to move forward following the finalisation of a land deal.

Bellway Strategic Land secured detailed planning permission for the Clavering Park project in August 2021. This approval paved the way for Bellway's Kent division to acquire the 20-acre site, completing the purchase in October 2024.

Clavering Park, located off Clavering Walk, will include 49 private homes and 21 affordable properties designed to serve local residents. The affordable homes will be available through low-cost rent or shared ownership schemes. The privately owned homes will feature a mix of two, three, and four-bedroom houses.


The development will also incorporate a large public open space in the northern part of the site. Plans include new planting, footpaths, boardwalks, and a dedicated children’s play area, creating a welcoming environment for both residents and the wider community.

Ben Stacey, Strategic Land Director (South), said: "Our team has put in a great deal of careful and detailed work throughout the ongoing planning process to ensure that this will be a well-designed, high-quality development which complements its setting as well as delivering much-needed new housing for the area.

"It is now good to be able to report that the next step towards the provision of these 70 new homes in Bexhill-on-Sea has been achieved by the purchase of the land by Bellway Kent."
