5 bedroom detached house for sale

REF MG1259Some houses you walk into and immediately feel at home, places where life seems to fall naturally into place. This is one of them. Set within a desirable and private cul-de-sac, it offers peace and privacy, while still being only moments from Haywards Heath station in one direction and the charm of Lindfield village in the other.Arriving through mobile-controlled electric gates, the brick-paved drive leads you to an oak-framed porch, giving the first hint of what lies inside. A spacious entrance hall sets a welcoming tone before opening into the hub of the home: a stunning triple-aspect kitchen and family room. Extended by the current owners, this space is designed around modern living, with a bespoke kitchen that blends function and style. A three-metre quartz island anchors the room, complete with wine cooler, breakfast bar, and ample storage. The range-style cooker, American-style fridge freezer, and double butler sink with its boiling hot water tap for everyday convenience, making it ideal for both family life and entertaining, while the adjoining utility room keeps the practicalities neatly out of sight. Vaulted ceilings with Velux windows flood the space with natural light, and corner bi-fold doors create a seamless connection to the terrace and landscaped gardens. Underfloor heating adds the perfect finishing touch, making this a space you’ll love to spend time in.The sitting room is equally inviting, with a triple aspect that captures light throughout the day. French doors open to the garden, while a wood-burning stove creates a cosy focal point for winter evenings. The layout works beautifully as two zones; a relaxed reading nook at the rear and a family TV space to the front. Elsewhere on the ground floor, there is a versatile playroom, a cloakroom, and useful understairs storage.Upstairs, the sense of light and space continues. A striking central window frames views over the drive, with a contemporary glass balustrade balancing character with modern design. The principal bedroom overlooks the garden, complete with built-in wardrobes and a sleek en-suite shower room. The guest bedroom, two further doubles and a fifth bedroom/study provide flexibility, while the family bathroom is finished with a rainwater shower, floating vanity unit and clever storage.The gardens have been carefully landscaped with family life in mind. A wide terrace spans the back of the house, fitted with lighting and power to make it perfect for entertaining. Central steps lead down to a generous lawn, while a second terrace captures the evening sun, an idyllic spot for a firepit and late-summer evenings outdoors. To the front, the brick-paved driveway provides ample parking, while the garage includes rear access and clever storage under its pitched roof.This is a home that balances elegance with practicality, combining thoughtful design, modern comfort and a location that truly delivers the best of both town and village life.The property tenure is freehold and the council tax band is F.
