Robin Shaw, Haywards Heath Road, Balcombe, West Sussex, RH17 6NJ

The Bungalow...
This detached bungalow occupies an enviable plot of approximately 0.25 acres backing on to Balcombe Estate and offers plenty of scope for extension/enlargement, STPP.

The bungalow itself would now benefit from certain updating and offers well-proportioned, versatile accommodation that includes a spacious 18ft x 13ft garden room, with vaulted ceiling, that enjoys an enviable outlook over the garden. This was previously the conservatory but has had a traditional roof installed which has transformed the room to an ‘all year around’ living space. There is also a versatile family room, fitted kitchen, three double bedrooms and a large family bathroom with separate shower cubicle.

Further benefits include gas central heating and double-glazed windows.

Scope/Potential...
In our opinion, there is vast potential to extend and enlarge the property to create an impressive, individual property on a sizable plot, in one of the area’s most sought-after villages.

Step Outside...
To the front the property is set back from the road behind a gated entrance. There is driveway parking for several cars.

In its entirety, the plot is approx 1/4 of an acre. To the rear the impressive garden that is laid mainly to lawn and enjoys a westerly aspect, adjoins Balcombe Estate. The paved terrace provides the ideal spot for 'al-fresco' dining and there is also a large pond and an array of wildlife in the garden, including three resident ducks!

The Location...
The property is situated on Haywards Heath Road within walk of village facilities including numerous shops and stores, tea room, village pub, social club, church, sports clubs, primary school and the mainline train station which provides services to London, Brighton and Gatwick Airport. 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. A school bus runs through the village providing transport to Warden Park secondary school in the neighbouring village of Cuckfield.
