2 bedroom semi-detached house

*Cash buyers only*

A rare opportunity to purchase this charming GRADE II listed 2 bedroom semi detached cottage standing in a large 0.28 acre plot just off this rural lane, surrounded by and overlooking open fields with woodland beyond.

The cottage is built of brick with part tile hung elevations beneath a catslide tiled roof.  Internally there is a wealth of character added to by an abundance of exposed beams.  Our vendor has been in residence for 25 years and some modernisation is now required. 

The property is surrounded by open countryside, yet is only 1.1 miles away from Plumpton Village and the mainline railway station (London 59 minutes), that is a rare bonus with a small village.  There  are 3 pubs in Plumpton, a village/general store, numerous sports clubs and the well regarded primary school.   Plumpton also falls into the catchment area of the favoured Chailey Secondary School. 

The accommodation includes a front door to a small entrance hall with an archway to the sitting room with stairs to the first floor and a fireplace with impressive Oak bressummer, an inset log burner and an alcove to one side.  From this room there is a downstairs guest bedroom/study. 

The kitchen/dining room spans the rear of the cottage, with 2 windows overlooking the rear garden, fitted with pine cupboards, a pine dresser, a butlers sink and space for a Rangemaster cooker.  There is a rear lobby with a door to the garden (used as the main access by our vendor) with a utility cupboard leading off it and a downstairs shower room/wc.

The master bedroom is located on the first floor, facing the front with far reaching views across fields and woodland.  There is a large ensuite currently fitted with a wc and basin with ample space for a bath/shower cubicle.

Outside the cottage is centrally situated in a large 200’ x 62’ (0.28 acre) plot, surrounded by fields and woodland with views to the South Downs.  To the front there is a driveway with parking for 2/3 cars.  The remaining gardens are laid to lawn interspersed by borders, hedging and trees.  Pond, tap, greenhouse and timber shed (in need of repair).  Rear gate onto open fields that are owned by Lady Anthonia Price and rented to Plumpton Agricultural College. 

Services: Electric heating, cesspit drainage situated in the neighbours garden with a 50% contribution.
