NEW SHOW HOME AT THE BRAMBLES HIGHLIGHTS BENEFITS OF COUNTRYSIDE LIVING
A new show home at The Brambles in Crowborough, East Sussex, will provide the first opportunity for people to explore an exciting new housing development in a stunning countryside setting. Developed by Elivia Homes, the properties are bordered by mature woodland, providing a tranquil backdrop for a peaceful rural life. The show home will open for its first visitors on 15th and 16th June 2024.
Across England, 10 million people live in rural areas, accounting for 17% of the country’s population. Many feel that countryside living delivers both physical and mental health benefits. There is certainly evidence to show that people who are exposed to lower levels of air pollution report greater levels of life satisfaction, with rural areas generally having less air pollution than urban areas.

At The Brambles, residents can enjoy the very best of countryside living. Crowborough sits on the edge of Ashdown Forest, the largest free public-access space in the South East and the inspiration for A. A. Milne’s Winnie the Pooh. It is located in the heart of the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, home to rolling hills, scattered farmsteads, woodlands, fields and heathland, providing plentiful opportunities for enjoying the fresh air on foot, by bike and on horseback. The beautiful beaches of England’s south coast are also within easy reach by car and train.
The new show home at The Brambles will deliver a first glimpse of the lifestyle on offer. The 26 properties range from two-bedroom apartments to four-bedroom houses, meeting a wide range of buyers’ needs, from first homes to upsizing and downsizing options. Each home will be built to Elivia’s exacting standards, with spacious, versatile layouts, stylish interiors and timeless architecture.
