Downscroft, Burgess Hill

DESCRIPTION This is a great family home and one that we think buyers will fall in love with. The location is excellent, Downscroft is a quiet cul-de-sac hidden away off Valebridge Road. To the front there is plenty of parking available, we like the fact you can park at least four cars on the drive. The ground floor accommodation flows really well, a double aspect sitting room leads through into the dining room where there are doors that lead you out to the garden. The kitchen is a good size, with further potential we think for a buyer to open the kitchen and dining room up to create a double aspect kitchen/diner. Currently in the kitchen there is plenty of prep space and a breakfast bar area and integrated appliances. Off the kitchen, the garage has been converted into an excellent family/playroom, which can also be used if required as a fifth bedroom. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a cloakroom, located in the entrance hall.

On the first floor are the four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is a superb room – there are built in wardrobes, a view over the garden and an en-suite. The family bathroom and bedroom two are also to the rear, whilst bedrooms three and four are located to the front. Outside, the rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with an area of patio from the kitchen and dining room. There is side access and enjoyment of plenty of daylight sun. To the front there is ample parking on the brick paved drive.

LOCATION Downscroft is an excellent spot for families or those looking to downsize. Set on a no through road, there is the obvious benefit of no passing traffic and therefore providing a quiet location. For commuters, there is access to Wivelsfield station its mainline connections to London Bridge and Victoria in under an hour to the north, or Lewes Brighton in under 20 minutes to the south. For primary schools, Manor Field is rated as good under its most recent Ofsted report, whilst the secondary schools in the town are either Burgess Hill Academy or St Paul’s Catholic College with its outstanding rating. Just before you turn onto Leylands Road to access the station, is Worlds End Recreation Park, whilst St John’s Park can be found off Park Road. Bedelands nature reserve is within 1 mile. The town has plenty of places to eat out with a number of independent restaurants from Curry Houses to Spanish, to Tex Mex and steak houses. Excitingly, Burgess Hill has approval for a £65 million redevelopment which will include a 10 screen cinema, hotel and additional 70,000 square feet of retail space.
