Summary - FORGE COTTAGE BALCOMBE ROAD CRAWLEY RH10 7RU
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Period charm with extension potential near station and schools.
Three large double bedrooms with galleried landing
Forge Cottage is a late-Victorian detached family home combining original character with usable modern upgrades. Exposed beams, bay window and a feature fireplace give genuine period charm, while a fitted country-style kitchen and a converted garage/outbuilding create practical living space.
Set back behind a gated tarmac drive with space for numerous cars, the house offers three large double bedrooms on a galleried landing and flexible ground-floor reception rooms ideal for entertaining and family life. The converted garage is insulated, powered and double-glazed, suitable as an office, gym or occasional guest space.
There is clear potential to increase footprint: footings for a double-storey extension are already present, though any build would require planning permission (STPP). The home does require some energy and efficiency attention — it currently has an EPC rating of E and double glazing fitted before 2002 — and council tax sits in band F, which is relatively costly.
Location is a strong practical benefit: short walk to Three Bridges station, excellent mobile and fast broadband, low local crime and several well-rated primary and secondary schools nearby. Overall this is a character-filled detached cottage for a family seeking scope to personalise and extend in a private, semi-rural setting.
