DESCRIPTION Fortnum House is a superb Edwardian home, full of charm and character that we have fallen in love with and we know that buyers will appreciate the level of attention to pick out the key characteristics that you would see in a home of this age. We were instantly drawn to the double fronted aspect as you approach the home, the single glazed sash window have been replaced with double glazed sashes to improve the heat retention whilst still providing that classical look. Both of the reception rooms that face the front benefit from stripped wood floors and are complemented by fireplaces, with the sitting room benefiting from an open fire. The kitchen spans the majority of the rear of the home and provides ample work surface space as well as plenty of cupboards and drawers. There is a built in hob and oven as well as a dishwasher and space for fridge freezer and a washing machine. Off the kitchen is a recently remodelled shower room which provides great flexibility from the first floor bathroom.

As you head to the first floor, the charm continues with the stair runner that complements the wood panelling. Bedrooms one and two are located to the front and benefit from fireplaces and built in wardrobes, whilst bedrooms three and four are to the rear and overlook the garden. The bathroom is tastefully finished and has the benefit of a P shape bath to maximise the use of space. The garden is a good size, enjoys plenty of daylight sun and has space for an office or a gym. Measuring 15’5 x 12, this is a great space for anyone that is looking to work from home. It is double glazed and has the benefit of lighting and power. There is access to the front on both sides of the house and off road parking on the gravelled drive to the south side.

LOCATION One of things we love about Fortnum House is the location. Handcross is a beautiful village nestled just north of Haywards Heath and south of Crawley and Pease Pottage. Local facilities include a Post office, newsagents, butchers, hardware shop and a variety of other stores/retailers. The Red Lion Pub is one of our favourite pubs in Mid-Sussex, great food and a good choice of beers! On your doorstep is Nymans Gardens National Trust – perfect for everyone and free for Handcross residents. For schools there is Handcross Primary which is rated as Good, whilst there is also Handcross Park School for those considering private education. Handcross is also in the catchment area for Warden Park in Cuckfield. Handcross provides access onto the M/A23 which takes you north to Gatwick Airport in just under 10 miles and the M23/M25 junction in 16 miles. For commuters, there is the choice of Three Bridges 5 miles north or Haywards Heath slightly further to the south east. Both stations are major stopping locations on the London to Brighton line, with trains taking you direct into London Bridge and Victoria in less than an hour, perfect for commuters.
