About

Eastbourne Borough Council is seeking a supplier for the design and build of a vacant site on Old Orchard Road, Eastbourne (formerly the Ministry of Justice building). The Town Centre site sits in a predominantly residential area adjacent to a conservation zone; the scheme was granted at planning committee on 13 December 2024 (planning application reference 240418) and the decision notice is expected imminently, with the S106 almost complete. The proposed development comprises 30 flats, all affordable housing, including two accessible ground-floor flats with two private parking bays, and the remainder of the site will be landscaped with gardens providing communal and private amenity for residents.

Insight

This opportunity is likely suited to design-and-build contractors or housing developers experienced in delivering affordable residential schemes. Key considerations include the site's proximity to a conservation zone, the requirement to deliver two accessible ground-floor flats and private parking bays, and that planning was granted on 13 December 2024 with the S106 nearly complete and the decision notice expected imminently.
