3 bed detached house for sale

Borde Hill Lane, Haywards Heath RH16

Situated just two miles north Haywards Heath surrounded by the lovely countryside of the Ouse Valley, this semi-detached house has a fabulous setting between town and country. The semi-rural position is favourable for its proximity to the wonderful heritage-listed parkland of Borde Hill and additionally affords stunning far-reaching views over the hills to the rear. The charming house, built circa 1892, has been well maintained and updated over the years but still has many character features, including sash windows, oak floors and open fireplaces. The loft has been converted to create a third bedroom and the garage partially converted for the utility room and offers external storage.
The accommodation is arranged over three floors and has a great layout with good flow. The size is ideal for couples or small families. Downstairs, an internal porch leads to an open plan sitting room and dining room, with steps down to a lovely study and a kitchen, with Wren cabinets, and an adjoining utility room. There is also a cloakroom with WC. The first floor has two double bedrooms and shower room, with a further double bedroom with built-in wardrobe on the top floor.

Outside

A large, private driveway provides parking for a number of cars and there is access to a garage partially converted for storage that’s ideal for garden tools and bikes. The enclosed rear garden is a lovely space with a secluded terrace providing an inviting space for dining outside in the warmer months. The lawn extends to a small timber shed and several mature trees including silver birch, fig, hazelnut, bay and camellia. The centre piece of the garden is a beautiful mature magnolia tree that flowers at least once a year. The front of the house features a beautiful wisteria that is particularly impressive in the spring.
