Walden, College Road, Haywards Heath, West Sussex, RH16 1QP

The House...
A three bedroom 1930’s ‘Turner’ semi-detached home of immense character, situated on the sought after College Road, within short walk of Haywards Heath station and sought after schools.

This well proportioned home offers a wealth of retained features which are typical of the homes designed by local renowned architect Harold G Turner including stripped wood flooring, oak staircase, brick open fireplace, leaded light & stained glass windows, picture rails, latch doors and beamed ceilings.

In full, the accommodation comprises-: entrance hall, cloakroom, 21ft sitting with bay window & wood burner, conservatory which extends the full width of the house (21ft) with ‘French’ doors opening onto the garden and dual aspect kitchen that was refitted in 2018.

A turned staircase rises to the first floor with a beautiful stained glass window. On the first floor are two good size double bedrooms, spacious dual aspect third bedroom and family bathroom.

Further benefits include gas fired central heating , secondary glazing, some recent decoration and a security alarm system (which may require a service). Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the charming character offered by 'Walden'.

Outside
To the rear is a good size (65ft x 32ft), established garden which is laid mainly to lawn with hedged borders and a paved terrace providing space for ‘al-fresco’ dining during the summer months. There is also a substantial ‘garden studio’ which has power, lighting, heating and telephone line – ideal for someone looking to work from home.

To the front is a block paved driveway that provides off road parking for 4/5 cars.

Potential
In our opinion, there is potential to extend the house to the rear and into the loft space. Many neighboring properties have undertaken such extensions, but this would still be subject to gaining all necessary permissions.

Location
College Road is an established residential road on the Haywards Heath/Lindfield borders, conveniently positioned within a short walk of Haywards Heaths mainline train station with its fast and regular services to London (roughly 45 minutes), Brighton and Gatwick Airport. By car, these can be easily accessed via the A23(M) which lies 5.5 miles west at Warninglid. Haywards Heath town centre with its extensive range of shops, cafés, bars and restaurants is less than one mile distant.

EDUCATION: The property falls in a good location for Harlands & Blackthorns primary schools and Oathall Community College. Central Sussex College Haywards Heath is approximately a half-mile distant.
