This is an excellent family home that will appeal to a wide range of buyers and combines a brilliant central location just a stones throw from the station, with flexible accommodation arranged over three floors. There are plenty of key features that we are taken with, in particular we are big fans of the extended kitchen/diner which is located to the rear and takes you out to the garden. Measuring an impressive 21 x 12, it is easy to see how this is the hub of the home. There is ample work surface and prep area, with space for a fridge, dishwasher, and washing machine, as well as a built in oven and hob. You’ll find space for a large dining table and an understairs storage cupboard. There is also an useful outer porch – the ideal spot for jackets and boots. The sitting room is located to the front, with a decorative fireplace and a bay window.

On the first floor you’ll find two bedrooms, an office and the main bathroom. Bedroom two is located to the front whilst bedroom three is to the side. An extension at the rear over the kitchen now provides an office, which for many buyers, could be a crucial addition to a home in the coming months and years. Double aspect, there is also a raised storage area which is a clever use of space. The bathroom has been updated and remodelled and also located at the rear. On the second floor, the loft conversion provides a really good size main bedroom with a walk in wardrobe, ample eaves storage and an en-suite. This is a great bedroom to relax in away from the two other bedrooms and the office with the added benefit of its own bathroom.

To the rear, there is a good size garden for the centre of town, with two defined patio areas. The raised patio at the rear is the prefect spot for table and chairs and takes advantage of the late afternoon sun. There is also an area of lawn, a wooden shed and side access to Gordon Close. To the front there is a brick paved drive with off road parking for two cars.

LOCATION The location of Mill Green Road is also another reason why we love this home. For commuters, the position is excellent. Haywards Heath station is on your doorstep, where trains to London Bridge and London Victoria are from 42 minutes, whilst Brighton is just 20 minutes to the south. On hand at the station is a Waitrose and around the corner is a Sainsbury’s. Also close by is The Dolphin Leisure Centre, open 7 days a week. For schools, catchment is Blackthorns Academy – rated as Outstanding. Within walking distance is Beech Hurst Gardens which has a children’s play area, miniature train line during the summer months and also a Harvester. A stroll into Lindfield via Queens Road and West Common provides a thriving community and independent shops as well as great places to eat and drink. There are plenty of outdoor areas to explore on foot from Mill Green Road; two of our favourites are Blunts Wood via Harlands Road and Wickham Wood. By car, National Trust facilities are located locally at Wakehurst Place and Nymans Gardens, with Sheffield Park less than 15 minutes by road. Pretty villages surround the town and include Cuckfield, Ardingly and Wivelsfield Green.
