46ft South Facing Rear Garden With Garden Room / Office | This spectacular two storey period maisonette has two double bedrooms, two reception rooms, period features, two entrances and a magnificent sunny rear garden with garden room / office. A share of the Freehold & outside dog shower are the cherries on the cake here!
This gorgeous ground and lower ground period maisonette really is a must see! The property is situated at the peaceful top end of Springfield Road just off Ditchling Road with Beaconsfield Road at the very bottom so you are within walking distance of a huge array of amenities including boutique & convenience shops, cafes, bakeries, supermarkets, gyms, beauty parlours, coffee shops, pubs and restaurants.
For anyone with dogs and/or children, both Blakers and Preston Park are nearby for those extended walkies when garden playtime won't cut it and they need to let off that bit of extra steam! Now onto the property...
You have the choice of entering via the main communal front door of the building or a private side entrance where the current owners installed dog washing facilities ideal for use after those muddy wet winter walks! Once inside the property you will be very pleasantly surprised at how light, airy and well presented it is throughout with an abundance of period features. Ground floor accommodation comprises of entrance hall, separate modern fitted kitchen with gas hob and dining room with a gorgeous sky light and panoramic windows overlooking the rear garden. You also get out to the garden and side access from this room. Double doors take you through into the lounge where you'll find a feature fireplace with marble surround and wooden floorboards. There is then an inner hallway giving you access to the bathroom, a separate W.C. And a generous bay fronted master bedroom with built-in wardrobes.
Stairs from the entrance hall lead down to the lengthy second bedroom that also offers built-in wardrobes. From here there is a hatch door into a vast cellar storage area that stretches the full length of the property therefore offering a fantastic opportunity for conversion to provide further accommodation / bathroom facilities subject to the necessary planning and consents.
The crowning jewel of this spacious maisonette has to be the spectacular 46ft South facing rear garden. A garden of this lustre is a rare find and the current owners have made it even more special by adding a high specification garden room / summer house. With internal and external power and lighting, it is ideal to use as a home office which so many more people need these days. Alternatively, a wonderful summer house, play den, weights or gaming room! The garden itself has both decked and lawned areas providing ample space to exercise or sunbathe out in, have family & friends over for those summer garden parties and barbeques, a little al fresco dining or simply just sitting with a cold glass of something after a long day & relaxing in the evening sun! It is also fully enclosed and secure which is reassuring for anyone with children or pets.
With a share of the Freehold and no onward chain, this truly fabulous home is ready to move straight into! It is within catchment of some excellent local schools and nurseries catering for all ages so perfectly placed for families. Reliable bus services run close by at Fiveways and London Road and easy residents' parking is plentiful in Springfield Road itself. Commuters have the choice of three mainline railway stations all of which are within easy reach. London Road station is quite literally a stone's throw away with both Brighton & Preston Park stations also just a short distance away.
