A private, gated setting in a quiet cul-de-sac places this five-bedroom detached house between Haywards Heath station and Lindfield village — an easy commute with village charm close by. The house is arranged over multiple floors and suits a busy family wanting flexible living spaces, home-working options and generous outdoor space.
The heart of the home is a triple-aspect bespoke kitchen-family room with vaulted ceiling, Velux windows, bi-fold doors to the terrace, underfloor heating and a three-metre quartz island. A separate sitting room with wood-burning stove, a playroom, utility room and useful understairs storage create well-zoned living for day-to-day family life and entertaining.
Upstairs offers a principal bedroom with built-in wardrobes and en-suite, three further doubles plus a fifth bedroom or study, and a contemporary family bathroom. The landscaped rear garden includes a wide terrace, sun-catching second terrace and a large lawn; the garage and brick-paved driveway provide parking and additional storage.
Practical considerations are clear and factual: the property was built in the 1950s–60s so is not new-build, council tax is band F (expensive), and there is a £200 yearly private road payment. Broadband is fast and crime levels are very low, making the location especially suitable for professionals and families seeking space, privacy and good schools nearby.
