About this property
This spacious first-floor, split-level two-bedroom apartment in the historic Grade II listed Priory features an open-plan kitchen/living/dining room, a generous 9'3" x 4'3" storage cupboard, and bedrooms at the far end for separation from the entertaining space, with the main bedroom dual-aspect and served by a luxurious fully tiled bathroom. With allocated parking and a central town location just a short walk to shops, cafés, and the mainline station, this stylish home is ideal for commuters or first-time buyers.
Striking Grade Ii Listed Building Dating Back To 1
This stylish first-floor, split-level apartment forms part of The Priory, a striking Grade II listed building dating back to 1896, originally constructed to house a community of nuns from Bruges. Sympathetically converted in 2020, the development now offers a collection of contemporary apartments in an exceptionally convenient central location. This spacious two-bedroom home is just a short, level walk from the town centre with its shops, cafés, and amenities, and only a few minutes on foot from the mainline railway station-perfect for commuters. Apartments in such a historic setting are rare, and those benefiting from allocated parking are particularly sought-after.
The apartment features a generous open-plan kitchen/living/dining room, designed to maximise space and natural light. Engineered oak flooring flows throughout, and large dual-aspect windows flood the room with daylight, creating a bright, airy environment. The contemporary kitchen is finished to a high specification, with quartz worktops, handleless units, under-counter lighting, and integrated appliances including an oven, hob, dishwasher, and washing machine, with space for a fridge/freezer. A ladder provides access to a substantial 9'3" x 4'3" storage cupboard, a massive asset in an apartment, perfect for larger items or additional household storage.
The bedrooms are located at the far end of the apartment, accessed via a split-level staircase, providing space and separation from the entertaining areas. Both bedrooms are served by a luxurious, fully tiled bathroom, with the main bedroom being dual-aspect and enjoying both east and west-facing views, filling the room with natural light throughout the day. Neutral décor throughout provides a stylish, ready-to-move-in home that is easy to personalise.
Additional benefits include electric heating, a video entry system, and an allocated parking space conveniently located near the communal entrance. This apartment represents an excellent opportunity for a first-time buyer, buy-to-let investor, or anyone seeking a secure, low-maintenance town-centre home.
The Location...
The Priory enjoys an exceptional central location, placing everything you need within easy reach. Haywards Heath’s vibrant town centre is just a short 8–10 minute walk away, offering an excellent range of shops, cafés, and amenities. The popular Broadway, now home to several recently added restaurants and independent venues-provides a lively social scene with favourites such as Pizza Express, the Lockhart Tavern gastropub, and wolfox coffee roasters, perfect for brunch or relaxed weekend dining. The area has continued to evolve in recent years, enhancing its appeal with improved public spaces and an ever-growing choice of places to eat and drink.
For commuters, Haywards Heath mainline station is approximately a 12–14 minute walk from The Priory and offers fast, regular services to London Bridge and London Victoria in around 45–50 minutes, Brighton in roughly 20 minutes, and Gatwick Airport in 12–15 minutes. The town is surrounded by a collection of charming villages, including Lindfield, Cuckfield, Ardingly and Wivelsfield Green, each offering scenic countryside and a welcoming local atmosphere. Excellent road links are also close at hand, with the A23(M) to the west and the A272 to the east providing straightforward access to the wider region and the M25 motorway network.
