Situation

The property is located in the sought-after village of Plumpton, with three well-regarded pubs and well-stocked village shop, set at the foot the South Downs National Park and offering an appealing balance of semi-rural living with excellent accessibility. The nearby historic county town of Lewes provides a wide range of independent shops, restaurants and cultural amenities, while Brighton and Haywards Heath offer more extensive shopping, leisure facilities and mainline rail services. The area is particularly well served for education. Plumpton itself has its own well-regarded pre and primary school, and the area also has a number of highly regarded independent schools within easy reach, including Cumnor House, Lewes Old Grammar, Ardingly College and Hurstpierpoint College. Plumpton railway station offers regular services to London, Lewes and Haywards Heath, and the A23 and A27 provide convenient connections to Gatwick Airport, Brighton and the wider motorway network.
