Summary - WHITEGATES FOLDERS LANE BURGESS HILL RH15 0DY
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Large plot, modernised interior, ideal for family living and entertaining.
Substantially extended five-bedroom detached house, 2,055 sq ft
This substantially extended five-bedroom detached house sits on a large plot in a favoured eastern Burgess Hill location, within easy reach of Ditchling Common and local schools. The ground floor has been opened up and fully modernised, with a refitted kitchen/breakfast room, generous dining room with glazed lantern and full-width bifold doors leading to a wide, well-enclosed rear garden with raised composite decking — ideal for family entertaining.
Internally the layout suits family life: a reception/family room, separate living room, study and a flexible ground-floor bedroom or home office. The master bedroom benefits from a dressing room and tiled en suite; three further bedrooms and a refitted family bathroom complete the first floor. Practical additions include a utility room, large driveway with electric gates and off-street parking for multiple cars, and a brick bike store.
The house has modern comforts — underfloor heating to the kitchen and dining areas, a new Worcester boiler (2023) and uPVC double glazing — and is presented in very good decorative order after extensive renovation. EPC C reflects reasonable efficiency for a property of this era, but the building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and cavity walls are assumed without additional insulation.
Notable considerations: Council Tax Band G means running costs will be higher than average for the area. Some historic construction elements (1967–1975 build and assumed cavity walls) may benefit from future upgrading for thermal performance. Overall, this is a spacious, versatile family home on a substantial plot in an affluent, low-crime suburb with fast broadband and good local schools.
