Set back on a no-through country lane, this spacious 4/5-bedroom detached house sits on a generous quarter-acre west-facing plot. The ground floor offers flexible living with a study (or fifth bedroom), formal dining room, large living room with ornate woodburner and double doors to the garden, plus kitchen/breakfast, utility, cloakroom and a ground-floor en-suite bedroom. Upstairs are three further bedrooms and a re-fitted family bathroom. Driveway parking for several cars and an attached single garage add practical convenience.
The plot and internal layout suit a family seeking space and adaptable rooms, while the large private garden and patio provide a sunny west aspect for late-afternoon and evening use. The property is well presented throughout and benefits from double glazing and gas central heating. Local village amenities, good schools (including an ‘Outstanding’ nearby option) and countryside footpaths make this a desirable rural family location with easy access to Haywards Heath and commuter rail links.
Notable practical points: the house dates from the 1950s–60s, has cavity walls assumed uninsulated, and an EPC rating of D — any buyer should expect opportunities and likely costs to improve energy efficiency. Broadband speeds are slow in the area despite excellent mobile signal. Council tax sits above average. Overall, this is a spacious, characterful family home with scope for modest modernisation to raise comfort and running costs.
