Ardingly Road, Cuckfield

DESCRIPTION Quite simply, a superb family oriented home that we have fallen in love with. There are so many aspects of this home that we think are great and will appeal to a wide range of buyers. Our clients have transformed this home by extending on the ground floor and the benefit is that you have a home designed specifically with a family in mind and not just extended for the sake of it. Clearly, the hub of the home is the kitchen/family room at the rear which is the perfect spot to entertain in. We love the ample silestone work surfaces which flow and complement the high gloss finish to the units and the breakfast bar. There is plenty of prep space, a four ring hob, electric oven, integrated dishwasher and wine cooler. There is space for a large American style fridge freezer and in the dining area you can comfortably accommodate a table for eight-ten people. The decision to have a vaulted ceiling with twin electronically controlled velux windows adds to the sense of light and space, as do the bi-folds which lead you out to the garden. The original kitchen is now a utility area, the continuation of the work tops provides more counter space and the appliances are neatly tucked away behind the gloss units. We particularly like the karndean floor which flows from the entrance hall, through the utility area and into the kitchen. Furthermore, for a busy family, the flooring is easy to keep clean and keep looking smart. The sitting room is also a good size and the bay to the front adds to the charm of the room. The double doors that lead through to the kitchen provides additional light in from the rear. The ground floor accommodation is completed by an understairs cupboard and a cloakroom. There is a window to the front of the entrance hall and to the side which provides a bright entrance to the property, something you immediately notice as you walk through the front door.

The bedroom layout is equally impressive. The master bedroom is large enough to comfortably accommodate a super king and benefits from built in wardrobes and a view over the rear garden. Bedroom two also benefits from built in wardrobes and a view to the rear whilst the third bedroom has fitted storage to maximise the space available. The bathroom has been remodelled to create a luxury shower room, perfect for a busy family. The walk in shower has a shower attachment as well as an overhead rainwater attachment and recess lit shelving. The slick finish of the tiling, basin and wc perfectly finishes off this room.
The rear garden is accessed via the bi-fold doors and the side kitchen door. Laid to patio and lawn, there is the perfect spot to make the most of the sun setting, with plenty of mature plants to three sides. A gate leads to the rear where a garage can be found on block with parking, whilst to the front there is a low maintenance garden and a driveway which can comfortably accommodate two cars.

LOCATION The sought after village of Cuckfield is located in a superb central position, just to the East of the A2/M23 linking Brighton and the M25. The village boasts an array of independent shops coupled with a thriving community. Our favourite places to eat are at The Talbot and The Rose And Crown – the tasting menu at The Rose And Crown is superb, whilst for a more special occasions, you could try the Michelin starred Ockenden Manor & Spa which is in the heart of the village. No 1 Broad Street which opened in March 2019, is proving to be big hit with many locals.

For schools, there is Holy Trinity Primary School and Warden Park Secondary School, both rated as good in their most recent Ofsted report. Those that need to commute can walk via Blunts Wood to Haywards Heath station where trains to London Victoria and London Bridge are under an hour. Alternatively, Balcombe station, which is the next stop north on the London to Brighton line is just under 4 miles. A short drive from The Brambles on along Tylers Green and Butlers Green Road takes you to Haywards Heath with its own range of shopping facilities including the recently opened Waitrose located at the train station. Gatwick Airport is within 15 miles and the M25 a little further along the M23.
