House For Sale £2,250,000
Built and completed in 2012 by the current
owners, Wickhams is a handsome Sussex
farmhouse-style family home.
Beneath the traditional facade is a stylish, light
and contemporary interior with the inclusion
of eco-friendly and modern technology, air
source heat pump, underfloor heating to three
floors, a heat recovery system throughout,
Sonos speakers and CAT5 cabling throughout,
Solar thermal panels on the roof for hot water
and Photovoltaic panels, incorporated into the
garden design, providing electricity (resulting in
very low running costs).
The obvious merits of the professionally designed
interior are apparent throughout
from the luxurious bathroom fittings to the
bold use of wallpaper and colour. At the heart
of the home is the stunning open plan kitchen/
dining/family room with bespoke "Stoneham"
fully-fitted kitchen, central island, integrated
appliances, high-spec polished stone worktops,
Porcelonosa ceramic tiled flooring and multiple
French doors giving access to the paved terrace
and garden beyond from the family and dining
areas, and from the sitting room.
The clever design of the basement level
provides the space for a fabulous cinema/games
room as well as an indoor gym and tucked
away plant room. The floor above the double
garage has been well planned to offer additional
accommodation and is currently arranged as a
sitting room, double bedroom and shower room.
Situation
Wickhams is situated close to the village of
Henfield with its local shops/restaurants; and 2
popular pubs (The Royal Oak and Wheatsheaf)
within walking distance. For more amenities,
Haywards Heath and Horsham are within easy
access. For rail links, Hassocks and Haywards
Heath both provide regular mainline services
to London Victoria/London Bridge. There
are also a number of excellent schools in the
area including Handcross Park, Steyning Grammar School, Lancing College and Hurstpierpoint College. There are a number of sporting facilities in the area, including Wickwoods Country Club, Spa at South Lodge and many miles of walks/cycle routes in nearby
South Downs National Park.
Outside
Wickhams sits well within its plot and is
accessed via remote-controlled wooden entry
gates onto a spacious resin bound gravel
driveway complete with turning circle which,
together with the large double garage with
electric doors, provides ample parking.
To the rear of the property, the garden is laid
mainly to lawn with a selection of mature
specimen trees and raised flower beds. A patio
runs the width of the property, providing the
perfect area for alfresco dining, and leads
seamlessly onto a cleverly-designed path that
takes you to, and around, the rose garden,
formal lawns, a play area (with play house/
art room) and greenhouse. From the patio,
steps lead up to the lawn and give access to
an enclosed decked area and outdoor Breeze
House, complete with lighting, heating, Wi-
Fi and speakers, overlooking the delightful
ornamental pond; making this an ideal space for
entertaining.
