**Chain Free and exempt from Stamp Duty for First Time Buyers!** An excellent first floor maisonette which has been lovingly updated throughout, with the benefit of your own private garden and two double bedrooms, perfectly positioned between walking into the village and access to Haywards Heath station.
DESCRIPTION This is a fantastic first floor maisonette and one we know that buyers will fall in love with. There are many key features which are important to consider. Firstly, we like the fact that there is your own private garden, which is something that’s hard to come by with other flats and apartments. Secondly, we love the condition of the home, the current owners have lovingly upgraded and updated throughout which allows you to simply move straight in and enjoy your new home. For some buyers, it may be the living space and storage that’s on offer, here you will find two large double bedrooms as well as a generous sitting room and ample loft space. For buyers that are apprehensive about lease lengths and service charges, they will be encouraged by the fact that the lease is in excess of 900 years and the service charge is only £20 per year.
Once inside the front door, stairs will lead you up onto the first floor into the landing, and we love that there is an extremely convenient storage cupboard at the top of the stairs as well as further storage off the landing. The landing provides access into the sitting room, kitchen, bathroom and the bedrooms. Both bedrooms are doubles and look over the front, whilst the bathroom and kitchen are located to the side. The sitting room has so much space on offer, there is space for your furniture as well as a dining table and chairs, we really like the large sliding doors with a South-Westerly aspect, this allows plenty of natural light to fill the sitting room and is a nice aspect overlooking the garden. The kitchen has ample prep space on the work surfaces with further space for appliances and wall units. The garden is low maintenance, its laid mainly to lawn however also benefits from a patio area with a pebble surround and raised flower beds. The garden is surrounded by other gardens and enjoys plenty of sun. Access to the garden is provided from the side of the property.
LOCATION The position of Pelham Road is excellent. Turn right from the front of your home door and a walk takes you into the village for everything you need in one direction, or turn left towards Haywards Heath mainline station in the other direction. The bustling High Street is the centre point of a thriving community with a wide range of independent shops to choose from.
There are also plenty of great places to eat in Lindfield too; we recommend either the Witch Inn or The Bent Arms if you are looking for that perfect pub lunch. For an evening meal, you can’t go wrong at the Limes Restaurant or Paolino’s Italian. The newly opened Tamasha Curry House is already proving to be a popular hit with local residents. Lindfield Coffee Works, tucked away on Alma Road off the High Street is proving to be a big hit and our go to place for coffee. Lindfield Common is a great spot to watch the world go by; cricket at the weekends in the summer or football in the winter. It is also the home of the bowls club. And on a Friday evening at the top of the common, you can’t beat the Fish & Chip van!
For schools, both highly regarded Blackthorns Primary and Lindfield Primary are within walking distance, as is Oathall Community College. Importantly for many local residents, the ability to get to Haywards Heath mainline train station is crucial and from Pelham Road, it is less than a mile away. Published train times to London Bridge and Victoria are approximately 50 minutes, whilst Brighton is around 20 minutes.
There are great places to get out and explore from Lindfield, National Trust facilities are located locally at Wakehurst Place and Nymans Gardens, with Sheffield Park less than 15 minutes by road.
