House For Sale £340,000
Brilliantly located close to the South Downs in a family friendly area with great schools and commuter transport links, this four-bedroom family home offers incredible value and no onward chain. It has spacious rooms which include two reception rooms and a sunny kitchen leading out to a vast south facing garden. Built during the 1960s, the same owner has lived here for over 50-years, and while there have been improvements in this time, there remains huge scope for further modernisation and extension which will add considerable value.
Residing on the outskirts of Burgess Hill, you can experience life in the countryside, while also having easy access to both Brighton and London by car and train. Wivlesfield Station is a five-minute walk from here for the London commute, along with the A23, which is a few minutes by car, so it is incredibly well-connected. Some of the best primary and secondary schools in the county sit within catchment and there is a real sense of community here with a village feel. With so much potential, space and charm, this house will appeal to families, developers and professionals alike.
Style: Semi-detached Mid-Century house
Type: 4 bedrooms; 3 double, 1 single, 2 bathrooms, 2 reception rooms, 1 kitchen
Location: Burgess Hill/Wivelsfield
Floor Area: 950 sq.ft
Outside: Large south-facing rear garden
Parking: Driveway for 3 cars
Tenure: Freehold
Council Tax Band: B
Why you’ll like it:
Set within leafy surroundings close to several amenities and parks, Eastdale Road forms part of a quiet residential area on the eastern edge of Burgess Hill. It feels safe and welcoming here, characterised by Mid-Century homes set back from the quiet roads behind driveways and neat front gardens.
This house is no exception having been well-maintained over the five-decades the current owners have lived here. The house has hung tiles on its upper façade and a shingle drive to the front for two/three cars, plus parking is also free on the street.
Stepping inside, the house feels warm and welcoming with two reception rooms on the ground floor; one to the front and the other to the rear looking out over the garden. These rooms are hugely versatile as dining rooms, sitting rooms, work spaces, play rooms, or one can be used as a bedroom. It is currently used as such with a bathroom conveniently next door; ideal for guests or anyone with mobility issues.
The interior decoration is smart and neutral, creating a blank canvas for any new owners, and the potential for reconfiguration is also evident. It would be possible to extend out to the garden, creating a large open plan kitchen and family room without compromising on space, or some neighbours have shown it is possible to knock down the wall between the kitchen and the dining room – all food for thought, and all subject to planning consents.
The rear garden is large with a vast area of lawn bordered by mature trees and evergreens which provide some welcomed dappled shade during the warmer seasons. It feels private and there is ample space for children’s play equipment and ball games. Equally, it is a fine size for entertaining as the weather warms, with space for dining alfresco on the patio close to the house.
Up on the first floor there are three double bedrooms and a roomy single sharing use of the family bathroom. This has been fitted more recently with a walk-in electric power shower and a vanity unit below the basin. All bedrooms have carpet underfoot and two have built-in wardrobes to maximise their floor space.
Agent’s thoughts:
With so much potential to add value, alongside off-street parking, a large garden and commuter links, we do not expect this property to stay on the market for long.
What the owner says:
"It has been a wonderful family home which has seen three generations come through its door, we are only the second owners to have lived here, so it holds many happy memories for us all. It will be a wrench to leave, but we hope the next family make it their own and love it here just as much.”
