About the property

The spacious & well proportioned accommodation comprises -: private entrance, hallway with vaulted ceiling and stairs to first floor, landing, 17ft sitting/dining room with fireplace, fitted kitchen/breakfast room with open views towards Lindfield (distant views to the village church spire), two large double bedrooms and bathroom with white suite and newly installed shower.

Outside is a private garden (a rare advantage for flats in central Haywards Heath) and residents parking on a first-come-first-served basis.
Rental potential
In our opinion, this maisonette would make an ideal buy-to-let purchase due to the long lease with portion of freehold, minimal maintenance charges and the outside space (seldom available on the rental market). The anticipated rental lies in the region of £850 PCM - £900 PCM, based on recent nearby lets. This gives a gross annual yield of approximately 4.3%.
