13 Lucastes Avenue, Haywards Heath, West Sussex, RH16 1JE

The House...
This attractive ‘Regency style’ detached family home was built in the early 1960s and occupies an incredibly sought-after position in the prestigious Lucastes Conservation Area, within short walk of the station and in the catchment area the favoured Harlands Primary School and Warden Park Secondary School.

The house is offered for sale in excellent order having been completely re-plastered & redecorated in the last 3-4 years and offers spacious, well-arranged accommodation that is ideal for family living.

Upon entry you are welcomed by an impressive reception hall with tiled flooring and an eye catching turned staircase.

Door doors lead through to the L-shaped sitting room with gorgeous herringbone parquet flooring. This dual aspect room is flooded with natural light and has a door that flow onto the garden. The fireplace has a beautiful marble surround and provides a focal point.

The social kitchen/diner extends to 21ft and guests are sure to gather around the central island with breakfast bar. The granite worktops add a touch of class and there are a range of integrated appliances including fridge/freezer, double oven, microwave, hob and wine cooler.

The ground floor extension was undertaken in 2007 to create the social kitchen/diner, utility room and shower room. There is an incredibly flexible family room/ground floor bedroom which could equally be used as a work-from-home space, if required. There is also a modern ground floor shower room just over the hall. The separate utility has side access, ideal after a muddy dog walk!

There is underfloor heating through the tiled areas of flooring and the family room and gas fired central heating/double glazing throughout.

The turned staircase rises to the galleried first floor landing. This level incorporates four well-balanced double bedrooms. The master bedroom enjoys its own contemporary ensuite with Jacuzzi bath and separate shower. The second, third & fourth bedrooms are served by the family bathroom with tasteful tiling & modern white suite.

Scope/Potential
Although in excellent order, the house does offer more opportunities for a discerning buyer. There is scope to extend over the garage at the front and also room to extend over the ground floor extension to enlarge the first floor. Any work would of course be STPP but we believe there is granted permission in place.

Step Outside...
The rear garden enjoys a southerly aspect, meaning there is plenty of sunshine throughout the day. The paved terrace is the perfect spot for ‘al-fresco’ dining and steps lead up to a level expanse of lawn that is ideal for children to play. There is gated side access.

To the front the house is set well-back from the road, with block paved driveway for several cars and a lawned garden.
