Guide price

This attractive semi-detached home enjoys a pleasant setting just outside the semi-rural village of Plumpton at the foot of the South Downs, over which there are beautiful far-reaching views from the front of the property. The property offers approximately 1400 sq ft of space and has been significantly extended in recent years to create a stylish and generously sized family home with ample space for family life and entertaining. Most recently the house has been cosmetically improved throughout and has had a rear extension and a newly fitted kitchen. Despite its contemporary look and feel, a number of character features remain including the original brick fireplace in the sitting room. The décor is mostly neutral making the cottage feel light and bright throughout and offering the new owner a great opportunity for personalisation.

On the ground floor, the entrance hallway is a spacious room with a storage cupboard. This leads to a good-size sitting room with wood-burning stove, a utility room and the striking 36ft kitchen and dining room, which is open plan and has a rear lobby leading to a cloakroom with w.c. Upstairs the main bedroom has fabulous forward views over the Downs and an en suite shower room. The two additional bedrooms share a family bathroom.

Outside

The property is approached over a private gravel driveway with parking for three cars. A side gate leads to the rear garden which includes a concrete terrace adjoining the house, a generously sized lawn and a variety of mature trees and shrubs. There is excellent potential for further landscaping.
