Edward Road, Haywards Heath

DESCRIPTION This is a fantastic family home set in a great location, there are many reasons why we feel that someone will fall in love with this home, whether it be the large West facing rear garden, the quiet cul-de-sac location within walking distance to both the town centre and Haywards Heath station or the period fireplace and bay window.

The welcoming entrance hall sets the scene for the rest of the home, we were immediately drawn to the solid oak flooring which flows into the sitting room. We love the sitting room and the character features that it offers, there’s a period open fireplace and the bay window which is complimented by plantation shutters allows the light to flood in through the property.

To the rear of the home you will find the kitchen / diner, this a great room for the family and it can comfortably host a four-seater dining table, the granite style work tops provide plenty of prep space and there is also an excellent range of oak effect wall and base units for added storage. French doors lead you out onto the garden whilst there is side access from the kitchen too.

The first floor is equally as impressive, we love the main bedroom which is facing towards the front of the home, like the sitting room it benefits from a bay window which is again complimented by plantation shutters and the alcove to either side of the chimney breast is perfect for wardrobes or extra furniture. Both bedrooms two and three overlook the rear garden, bedroom two is a double and the third bedroom would make a great nursery or study. The top floor is completed by a stylish modern bathroom.

The rear garden is simply fantastic, not only is it West facing so it naturally benefits from afternoon and evening sun, it backs onto playing fields you can easily forget that you’re within walking distance of the town centre. We believe that the rear garden measures in the region of 75ft, there’s a silver birch tree which is a great feature as well as separate areas of lawn and patio, at the bottom of the garden there is a shed with power running to it. To the front of the property you will find off street parking.

LOCATION The location of Edward Road for buyers is excellent. Within walking distance of both the town centre and mainline station it also is only a short walk to the southern entrance into Victoria Park which has tennis courts, an all year round children’s play area with a splash pad open from May until September, a skate park, plenty of open and wooded areas and Tory’s café – a hit with many regulars.

A range of bars and restaurants can be found at The Broadway whilst an extensive range of shops are located at The Orchards. Ashenground Community Centre is less than 1/3 of a mile and provides plenty of classes and activities for local residents to enjoy.
