Balcombe Road, Haywards Heath

DESCRIPTION *Guide Price £925,000-£950,000* This is a superb property, built in the 16th century and converted to residence in 1984 to create an excellent family home. There is plenty for a buyer to get excited about, from the southerly aspect garden to the character throughout.

We like the fact that the principle ground floor rooms all look out over the rear garden. The sitting room benefits from a triple aspect and flows perfectly into the dining room, the height of the ceilings are one not to miss along with the classic beams that come with a barn of this age. There are double doors leading out to the patio area, we think this would be perfect on a summers day. The kitchen/breakfast room provides ample work surface space and appliances, with a door that leads to a large utility area with the boiler and washing machine.

From the utility room there is a door through to the double story garage with plenty of space for two cars, the upstairs part of the garage is great for storage.

Upstairs in the original barn the master suite sits on the southern corner and overlooks the fabulous rear garden, the en suite shower room is finished to a good standard too, this room benefits from lots of natural light. The second and third bedrooms are good rooms and have lots of storage space. There is a fourth room upstairs which we think is a great space for a home office.

The seperate annex we think is a great space for either family coming to visit or just simply another great space to relax in. There is a kitchen space plus a living room which overlook the courtyard area. There is a double bedroom too plus a bathroom. It was once used as an office space and we think this could be a good idea again if a buyer was to run a business from home.

Outside the garden has a favourable southerly aspect and is lanscaped to a great standard, with a patio area leading from the living room area and the utility room and then the majority of the garden is laid to lawn.
