Linden Grove, Lindfield

DESCRIPTION This is a great family home located in a cul-de-sac that buyers will fall in love with, a short stroll to the common and then into the High Street in one direction, or to the station in another direction. The internal presentation is clean and tidy, but a buyer is most likely to want to modernise and update and take advantage of the spacious accommodation. There are a few options to buyers, potentially to convert the garage into a kitchen and a utility room perhaps which could then create a large open plan feel which would allow the current kitchen to be used as a study. Elsewhere on the ground floor there is a cloakroom and understairs storage cupboard. We really like the layout of the first floor. All of the bedrooms are a good size, with the master bedroom being particularly large and we think offers the possibility of creating an en-suite. Bedrooms one and two overlook the rear garden, whilst bedroom three and the bathroom are to the front. Another nice touch are the full length French doors on the first floor which allows plenty of light into the landing.

Outside, the patio is laid to patio for ease of maintenance and benefits from plenty of daylight sun. To the front there is off road parking on the brick paved drive and a low maintenance garden, along with the garage.

LOCATION The position of Linden Grove is fantastic. Turn left out of the road and a short walk takes you to the common and then passed the pond and into the centre of the village, or turn right 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; 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, Paolino’s Italian or Tamasha curry house. 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. Stroll to Lindfield Common and you can 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!
