About this property

Welcome to Old Plawhatch House. Dating back to the 1590's and once serving as a toll house for Ashdown Forest, it now stands as a beautifully restored Arts and Crafts residence set within nearly an acre of mature, peaceful grounds. The views stretch out across the forest, creating a sense of calm and space that's rare to find. Inside, character and comfort blend seamlessly. The sitting room, with open fire, and games room both open onto the terrace, inviting indoor outdoor living. The kitchen/breakfast room-with its Aga and garden outlook-is the heart of the home. The panelled reception hall, with another open fireplace, and oak staircase, lead to a galleried landing with a charming library area. Across the upper floors, six bedrooms offer flexibility for family life, guests, or home working. The annexe above the garage provides an additional self contained living space.

Everyday convenience is thoughtfully considered, with a boot room, utility room, plentiful parking, and a gardening service (excluding grass cutting). Furnishing options are available to suit your needs.
