Lancaster Drive, East Grinstead, RH19

Overview

We absolutely love this well loved four bedroom detached family home positioned in a quiet, residential estate. The location is popular with families considering the short walking distance to local primary & secondary schools and easy reach of East Court woods and playing fields.

As you enter you are welcomed in to the bright entrance porch offering space to store coats and shoes. To the right of the hallway is the bright and spacious lounge/dining room which is double aspect and offers plenty of space for multiple furnishings and large dining table and chairs. Sliding doors lead onto the private rear garden and patio. The kitchen/breakfast room is a great size and benefits from a range of eye and base level units, built-in over with induction hob and space for appliances. A downstairs cloakroom and under-stairs cupboard completes the ground floor.

A wide staircase leads to the first floor accomodation which comprises four generous bedrooms benefitting from built-in wardrobes with the fourth bedroom currently set up as a home office. The family bathroom is generous in size with a separate W.C which could be converted into an en-suite to the principal bedroom. A large loft is accessed via pulldown ladder.

Outside to the rear is a private and well-maintained lawn with a range of shrubs and herbaceous boarders, pond and patio, ideal for entertaining guests. There is rear access into the double garage with up and over doors. To the front is a generous driveway that can accommodate 2-3 vehicles.
