Farlington Avenue, Haywards Heath

DESCRIPTION This is a great family home which provides a buyer with plenty of flexibility, finished to an excellent specification in a quiet residential spot of Haywards Heath. The loft conversion ensures that there are now four good size bedrooms, one on the ground floor and three on the first floor. We feel that buyers will particularly like the sitting room with a dining area which overlooks the rear garden. This excellent room enjoys a south easterly aspect and measures an impressive 24 ft in length, and the large windows allow plenty of light to flood in. A great part of the home to entertain in. The modern kitchen boasts high gloss white units which complement the wood effect work tops. This double aspect room has units built around the full height fridge freezer and there is also access to the rear garden. The entrance hall benefits from wood effect flooring and has a storage cupboard which has plumbing and currently accommodates the washing machine and tumble dryer, enabling a buyer to make the most of the kitchen unit space. The original bungalow had two bedrooms to the front and whilst these rooms still exist, we imagine that a buyer would potentially use the double aspect room as either a study or a playroom. The ground floor is completed by a shower room, and we think this is ideal taking into account that there is a ground floor bedroom.

The loft conversion, in our opinion, provides an excellent use of space with three bedrooms and a bathroom. Two of the bedrooms overlook the rear garden whilst the third bedroom with the skylight is to the front. This room also has the benefit of build in wardrobes. The stylish finish in the bathroom includes an L shaped bath to maximise bath and shower use.

Externally, access to the rear garden is from the sitting room and the kitchen. The sitting room leads to a decking area and there is excellent storage under this part of the home. The garden is mature and well maintained, with a further decking and seating area to one side. The garage measures just over 22 ft in length with power and a door at the rear. The driveway is brick paved to provide a modern finish to the front and can comfortably accommodate three or four cars.
