House For Sale £375,000
Period potential | This attractive bay fronted Victorian semi-detached home, offering plenty of potential for extension and modernisation. South facing garden, excellent catchment area and close to the station for commuters. No chain.
The House...
This attractive bay fronted Victorian semi-detached house is offered to the market for just the second time since being built and occupies a most convenient location for Haywards Heath’s mainline station and is in a highly regarded school catchment area.
Internally, the house would now benefit from modernisation but has clearly been lovingly maintained by our vendor, who has been in occupation for over 50 years. The current accommodation is your classic “two up, two down” with an inviting sitting room to the front. This room enjoys a focal point fireplace and bay window with original sash window. There is a separate dining room which leads through to the kitchen, which in turn provides access to the garden.
On the first floor there are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Further attributes include gas fired central heating with modern boiler and double glazing to the remainder of the windows.
Scope/Potential...
There is, in our opinion, plenty of scope to substantially extend and enlarge the house, subject to planning permission. Many neighbouring homes have extended to the rear and into the loft space, which could create an additional two bedrooms. There is also potential to create a driveway in place of the front garden, STPP.
Step Outside...
To the rear the house has the rare advantage of sizable semi-detached garage. The garden enjoys a favoured southerly aspect meaning plenty of sunshine throughout the day. There is a large, recently built green house that boasts a large grape vine and further brick built outbuilding. The remainder is laid mainly to lawn with established borders.
The Location...
College Road is conveniently located within a short walk of Haywards Heath's mainline train station with its fast and regular services to London (Victoria/London Bridge in approx 47 mins), Brighton and Gatwick International Airport. Also within walking distance are Waitrose and Sainsbury's Superstores and Dolphin Leisure Centre. By car, surrounding towns & cities can be easily accessed via the A272 and A23(M) with the latter lying 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. The Broadway is the social hub of the town and provides a selection of leading chains including Cote Brasserie, Cafe Rouge, Prezzo and Pizza Express. There is trendy independent bars including IdleWild, Orange Square and the Lockhart Tavern. The Witch Inn 'gastro pub' in neighbouring Lindfield is also within walking distance.
Schools: The property falls in the catchment area for the sought after Blackthorns Primary School and Oathall Community College. The reputable Harlands School is also nearby.
