Two-bedroom ground-floor maisonette with sunny private garden and Lifetime Lease option for over‑60s..
Secluded south/sunny-facing rear garden in a quiet cul‑de‑sac
Set in a quiet cul‑de‑sac in Haywards Heath, this two‑bed ground floor maisonette offers a secluded, sunny rear garden and easy walking distance to the town centre and train station. The accommodation is compact (about 529 sq ft) but arranged with a spacious lounge/dining room and two double bedrooms, making it suitable for downsizers or those seeking single‑level living.
The property is offered chain‑free and comes with a very long lease (approx. 935 years), low ground rent (£15) and a below‑average service charge (£450). Heating is by electric storage heaters and the glazing was installed prior to 2002. Walls are cavity built with no added insulation assumed – worth noting for heating costs and future improvements.
The kitchen dates from the 1970s and will need modernization; there is clear potential to refresh fixtures, surfaces and insulation to improve comfort and energy efficiency. The overall condition is practical rather than modern — a buyer should expect cosmetic updates and possible heating upgrades rather than move‑in‑ready finishes.
This listing is also shown with an example Lifetime Lease option for over‑60s through Homewise, which can reduce the purchase cost compared with market value. The Lifetime Lease guide price for this property is £159,000 (example saving ~33% versus the full market price of £240,000), but actual figures depend on age and personal circumstances. The property remains available at full market value for non‑eligible buyers.
