The House...
PSPhomes are delighted a most imposing and ornate semi-detached Victorian Villa situated in a prime position for Haywards Heath’s mainline station – perfect for a commute and in a highly regarded school catchment area.
Although the house would now benefit from certain cosmetic updating there is a real sense of period grandeur and a wealth of features that are typical of the Victorian era including 9ft high ceilings, bay windows, deep skirtings and exposed floorboards. Externally, the house boasts some beautiful features with detailed brickwork and ornate decorative fascia.
The accommodation is arranged over two floors and extends to around 1,700 sq ft with an inviting formal sitting room to the front, second reception room, kitchen/breakfast room, utility and cloakroom.
On the first floor there are three spacious double bedrooms, nursery fourth bedroom, large family bathroom and separate cloakroom.
There is also a useful cellar providing excellent storage.
Further attributes gas central heating and no onward chain (although tenanted until August 2021 at the latest).
Scope/Potential...
There is, in our opinion, plenty of space for a sizable extension to the side/rear to create a large open kitchen/dining/family room. Any work would of course be STPP.
Step Outside...
The garden enjoys a sunny southerly aspect meaning sunshine throughout the day. There is an area of decking and patio, perfect for ‘al-fresco’ dining. A step leads up to an expanse of lawn. To the side is a detached garage/store and there is plenty of driveway parking.
NB
Opportunities to acquire period homes of this size and calibre in such convenient locations are seldom available.
The Location...
Sydney Road is an established residential road of mainly Victorian/Edwardian/1930s homes and enjoys a most convenient location for Haywards Heaths mainline station, which provides fast and regular commuter services to London (Victoria/London Bridge in approx 47 mins), Brighton and Gatwick International Airport. Additionally the recently opened Waitrose Superstore is within easy walking distance. There are a variety of other local amenities within close proximity including a convenience store while Sainsburys Superstore and the Olympus Leisure Centre are also within walking distance. By road, surrounding areas can be easily accessed via the A272 and A23(M) with the latter lying approximately five miles west at Bolney/Warninglid.
The property falls into the catchment area for the highly regarded Blackthorns Primary School in Lindfield and for secondary education children usually attend Oathall Community College. There are also a number of private schools within the local area including Great Walstead School, Ardingly College, Hurstpierpoint College and Burgess Hill School for Girls.
