About this property
If you're looking for a spacious ground floor apartment with generous room sizes, modern finishes, access to outside space - all within in a quintessential village close to a mainline station then this excellent apartment in Jobes could be the one for you.
Welcome Home...
If you're looking for a village apartment, with access to outside space, and easy access to a mainline station then this excellent ground floor flat in the brilliant village of Balcombe could be just the one you've been waiting for.
A private entrance leads into a handy porch and then a further hall with storage for shoes & coats. The sitting room is a really generous sized room with full height window that overlooks a leafy green to the front. The panelling and fireplace add a touch of character which makes this an inviting space.
The kitchen lies off of the living room, meaning you're always connected with guests when entertaining. The kitchen itself is sleek & stylish with grey gloss units, integrated fridge/freezer, oven and dishwasher and space for a dining table. A door leads out to the courtyard garden area providing space for a small table & chairs.
Both bedrooms are generous doubles. The second bedroom is beautifully decorated with tasteful panelling beyond the headboard and plenty of fitted storage space. The main bedroom is an excellent double and overlooks the front.
One huge advantage is the vast amount of deep, built in storage space with six fitted cupboards. The home is also fully double glazed, has upgraded electrics and has gas fired central heating (boiler is 6 years old and enjoys the remainder of 10 year warranty).
There is ample, unrestricted, on street parking for residents.
Brilliant Balcombe...
Jobes is a peaceful close in the heart of Balcombe. The village station is within short walking distance and provides regular mainline Thameslink services to London Bridge, Blackfriars, City Thameslink, Farringdon & St Pancras. Village facilities include numerous shops and stores, coffee shop, Half Moon Inn village pub, Balcombe social club, church, sports clubs, primary school and the mainline train station providing links to London, Gatwick Airport and Brighton. Haywards Heath and Crawley offer more extensive shopping and leisure facilities in addition to mainline railway stations (Haywards Heath to Victoria or London Bridge both approximately 47mins). By road, access to surrounding areas can be gained via the A23(M) which lies approximately 4.5 miles to the west at Handcross or north at Maidenbower.
Balcombe is surrounded by beautiful Sussex countryside. To the east are Balcombe lake & Ardingly Reservoir with their variety of footpaths, bridleways and angling facilities. The area is renowned for the standard of its schooling in both the private and state sectors with Balcombe Primary School being particularly reputable. A school bus runs through the village providing transport to Warden Park secondary school in the neighbouring village of Cuckfield. In the private sector Worth School and Handcross Park, Ardingly College, Great Walstead and Burgess Hill School for Girls are all easily accessible.

Nb - Anti Money Laundering
In line with our obligations, any intending purchaser will be subject to relevant Anti-Money Laundering checks.

There is a small charge of £20 per purchaser to complete these checks and this happens before a sale enters the conveyancing process.
