The Accommodation
Plumpton House is situated towards the edge of the village off a quiet no through lane. The property is constructed of local stone and has been extended over the years which has resulted in a well laid out, light, well presented, family home. The house is accessed via a porch to a hallway with double doors opening to a sitting room with log burner to one end and a door to a useful study with boiler/drying cupboard. The well fitted “living” kitchen has extensive wall and floor cupboards, a combination of quartz and wood work surfaces, Belfast sink, Rangemaster cooking range and a centre work island. There are both eating areas (with fitted wall dresser housing wine cooler) and a sitting area with a door to the utility room with fitted cupboards. From the rear hall is a shower room and dining room.

On the first floor is a wide landing with airing cupboard and four double, light bedrooms (one with en suite and one with fitted cupboards). There is also a family bathroom.

Outside
The gardens are a feature of the property as are principally southeast facing. The main garden is mainly laid to lawn with wide flower borders and several sitting areas to follow the sun during the day.

To the west of the property, over the gravelled drive with off road parking, is a stone barn having previously been a separate cottage with power, and potential to convert into annexe subject to planning or similar.
