Ashurst Lane, Plumpton

Description

Charles Wycherley Independent Estate Agents are delighted to freshly offer this newly agreed planning permission for a new design house building plot. The new design is a significantly larger 2-storey contemporary design house with 4 double bedrooms, 3 with ensuite (2 shower rooms and a shower room/bathroom), together with a family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a huge room with a corner window feature, dressing room and ensuite bathroom/shower room. The second and fourth bedrooms have doors onto the green roof facing south. The new design has an entrance hall with cloakroom and study, and leads into a clever mix of open-plan to the living room/kitchen/dining area, with full-height windows to a sheltered canopy and gardens. Beyond this is a modern day pantry, utility and plant room for an air-source heat pump. Further cloakroom and a private sitting room/media room. This is a hugely improved property design and accommodation in semi-rural Plumpton, and there is a large walled garden and car parking with an easterly aspect to open fields and countryside.

Southern Stables development is located just yards from the celebrated Plumpton Racecourse, but is also on the attractive ridge joining Plumpton to Streat, with superb properties and walks. Plumpton Railway Station (connections to Lewes, Gatwick and London Victoria/Bridge) is just a couple of hundred yards walk via Plumpton Lane. Southern Stables is within the designated area of the South Downs National Park, making this plot a very rare development. Plumpton village has 3 pubs, one each end of the village and The Fountain in the centre. There is an excellent village shop, as well as a primary school, recreation/sports ground with a children`s nursery and pavilion, as well as a parish church and a purpose-built village hall with various community activities. Plumpton is approximately 6 miles equidistant from Lewes, Haywards Heath and Burgess Hill. Lewes` historic centre has an abundance of independent shops, cafes and restaurants, 3 superstores and the popular Depot Cinema.
