Welcome Home...

If you’re looking for an exceptional and incredibly spacious detached family home in the heart of lovely Lindfield then look no further. Having been substantially extended and totally remodelled, with over 2,600 sq ft of accommodation and a contemporary, high spec finish throughout this is a home of a calibre that rarely comes to market in the village.

Upon entry you’re welcomed by an impressive central hall that sets the tone, with your eye immediately drawn through to the wow-factor space that extends across the rear.

The formal sitting room extends to an impressive 19ft9 and offers a spacious, yet cosy retreat. The fireplace provides a natural focal point and the decorative panelling creates a tasteful backdrop.

For those who work from home, there is a generous home office.

Across the rear is the utterly exceptional, 40ft, open plan kitchen/dining/family room which is, without doubt, the beating heart of this home. Created as part of a full width extension, there is such excellent space on offer with plenty of room for clear sitting and dining zones. The bi-fold doors open to blur the division between the inside and the entire space has underfloor heating, making it an appealing space whatever the season.

The kitchen itself has timeless shaker-style cabinetry that sits under quality quartz counters. The large central island makes this a great space for entertaining and there is a range of integrated appliances including two ovens, microwave and induction hob.

The separate utility hides away the noisier appliances and it ideal for a busy family. There is also a modern understairs cloakroom.

The integral garage provides immense storage and parking space and there is of course potential to convert into further accommodation or a gym, if preferred.

On the first floor there are five generous bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms.

The principle suite is exceptional with a generous sleeping area and dividing wall that provides separation from the walk in dressing room. The ensuite is stylish and oversized, with “his & hers” sinks, standalone bathtub and walk in shower.

There are three further genuine double bedrooms, single fifth bedroom – each served by the stylish family bathroom.

Since purchasing is in 2018, the home has been fully rewired and replumbed. All the windows have been replaced timber framed double glazed units and there is access to an Ultrafast fibre broadband connection. The floors and internal doors are all oak too, adding to the quality feel that flows throughout.

Step Outside

Stepping outside, the transformation continues with the incredibly private, landscaped garden. The paved terrace sits under an oak framed pergola to provide the perfect spot for some ‘al-fresco’ dining with friends and family. There is power, heating and lighting too.

There are pretty raised beds and borders and a designated children’s play area.

For those who work from home, or run a small business, there is a separate garden studio, again with power & lighting.

Gated side access leads back to the front where you’ll find driveway parking for numerous vehicles.

Offered for sale with no onward chain.
