House For Sale £1,350,000
Nightingales is an appealing, characterful property with white painted brickwork and tile-hung elevations. This former Lodge House has been sympathetically extended and modernised by the current owners with many notable features, which include exposed painted brickwork, timber beams and a herring bone, brick-weave chimney breast with inset wood-burning stove to the sitting room. At the heart of the home is the bright kitchen/breakfast/family room, with wooden flooring, French doors to the garden and ample space for a dining table, along with relaxed seating. The kitchen area boasts a bespoke, solid wood shaker style fitted kitchen with peninsula breakfast bar and useful larder cupboard storage. The utility room adjoins the kitchen providing storage for domestic appliances and further units, with access to a cloakroom and to the outside.
A turned staircase leads to the first floor, with the landing flooded by natural light from the vaulted ceiling Velux window. There are four bedrooms, all with countryside aspects. The principal bedroom is en-suite with a well appointed shower room, and wardrobe storage. The family bathroom has attractive, painted, tongue-and-groove panelling. The property benefits from Solar panels, generating fit payment of £1500pa until 2036.
Agents Note: There is a 20 year overage clause on the paddock dated from 2014.
Nightingales is situated in a rural, yet convenient location, with the thriving village of Henfield about 5 miles distant, offering an assortment of local independent shops, a supermarket, public houses and restaurants. Haywards Heath is only 7 miles away providing a wider range of shopping and recreational facilities, along with a main line station with services to London Bridge & Victoria (about 42 mins & 43 mins respectively). The A23/M23 provides easy access to Gatwick, Brighton and north to the M25 and national motorway network. There is an excellent selection of schools in the area, including Hurstpierpoint College, Brighton College, Cottesmore and Handcross Park.
Evergreen hedging adjoins the lane with access to the paved driveway, providing additional parking to the garaging. Countryside with far-reaching views to undulating landscapes, emcompasses the property and low boundary hedging ensures an uninterrupted outlook. The adjoining paddock is enclosed by low hedging and the original dew pond has been reinstated, providing a natural habitat for wildlife. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a pathway meandering to the periphery, giving access to the spacious fully insulated workshop; with power, light and underfloor heating. Subject to the usual consents, the workshop could be converted to ancillary accommodation or a
home office. Paved terracing adjoins the house enabling opportunities for outdoor dining and relaxation, whilst enjoying the open aspect to south and west. An external staircase leads to the first floor games room above the garage, with a south-westerly view from the balcony.
