Ticehurst, East Sussex

Outline planning permission has been approved for an exclusive development of 3 custom build homes in the centre of this picturesque village.

This is an extremely rare opportunity to secure a plot for a custom home so close to the centre of the village. After reserving a plot buyers will work with the project architects, Paper Architecture, on the design of their home. All of the units will be fully bespoke and designed in line with the approved Design Guide.

Externally the houses will be detached, traditional, Kentish-style homes while inside they will deliver the thermal efficiency and creature comforts required for modern living. The floor plan can be futureproofed for later years by incorporating a flexible layout plus a lift if required.

Standard features included in the contractor’s specification include underfloor heating to the ground floor, electric car charger, air source heat pump, mechanical heat ventilation system plus high quality kitchens and bathrooms. Additional options include solar panels and air conditioning.

All plots come with 2 parking spaces and integral garages can be incorporated into the house design if required.

Buyers will work with the main contractor’s suppliers to select all internal features including the flooring, kitchen, sanitary ware and tiles.  The houses will be delivered to a turnkey finish and the estimated build time is 12 months.

Plot Prices
Plot 1: £285,000
Plot 2: £275,000
Plot 3: £265,000
