24 Summerhill Close, Haywards Heath, West Sussex, RH16 1QZ

The House...
A truly stunning example of what is possible when combining an imaginative extension with a beautiful ‘Turner’ 1930s home. This individual home provides a sympathetic combination of contemporary styling and archetypal Turner features including stained glass windows, oak staircase, brick open fireplace, picture rails, oak doors and beamed ceilings.

The ground floor accommodation is ideal for modern family living with two separate reception rooms and a social kitchen/diner. The reception hall leads through to a family room (part of the extension) which provides a useful utility area, bi-fold doors onto the garden and skylights allowing floods of natural light. The hall & family room are separated by a further set of folding doors which when opened create an impressive open-plan space – perfect for entertaining. This space, as well as the cloakroom, enjoy Karndean flooring and underfloor heating.

The inviting sitting room extends to 20ft with beautiful leaded light doors opening on to the terrace. There is an open fireplace and ceiling beams providing oodles of character. To the front is the tasteful kitchen/diner which extends to 22ft and provides ample storage.

On the first floor are three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The 20ft master bedroom is particularly impressive and enjoys a pleasant outlook over the garden. There is built-in wardrobes, a storage cupboard and modern en-suite shower room with walk-in Aqualisa shower & under floor heating.

Stairs lead to the second-floor loft conversion which has created a unique space with galleried landing area and bedroom with dressing area.

Further attributes include gas fired central heating, mostly double glazed windows and contemporary neutral décor.

Outside,,,
The rear garden is a great size and enjoys a sunny south-easterly aspect meaning there is sun all day long. There is a raised terrace immediately adjacent to the house which provides the ideal spot for ‘al-fresco’ dining. Steps lead down to an expanse of lawn and the fully powered Summerhouse, which is currently used as a gym but offers a variety of potential uses. To the front is a gated gravel driveway affording parking for several vehicles.
