EXCITING POTENTIAL | This detached family home is offered for sale for the very first time since being built in 1968 and offers lots of potential for a discerning purchaser to modernise and/or extend, STPP. Great position for the mainline station and highly regarded primary school. No onward chain.
The House... - An exciting opportunity to acquire a detached family home that offers oodles of potential for sizeable extension in Balcombe one of Mid Sussexs most sought-after villages.
The house is offered for sale for the very first time since being built by our clients family in 1968 and offers well-proportioned, family friendly accommodation which would now benefit from some modernisation.
The elevated position in the cul-de-sac means the house enjoys some stunning westerly views over the High Weald AONB and some spectacular sunsets.
As it stands the accommodation on the ground floor includes a sitting room, dining room (interconnecting sliding doors), kitchen/breakfast room, study (perfect for home working) and cloakroom. On the first floor are four bedrooms, each with fitted wardrobes and the family bathroom.
Modern attributes include double glazing throughout and a recently upgraded Worcester boiler providing gas central heating.
Step Outside... - The rear garden backs on to the village recreation ground and is well established with an area of lawn and plenty of screening with hedged borders. There is a single detached garage to the side. To front garden is sizeable and enjoys a sunny, westerly aspect. There is driveway parking for one car.
In our opinion, there is potential for sizeable extension to the rear, side and possibly the front, subject to any necessary consents. Many of the neighbouring homes have been extended and/or remodelled making this an exciting opportunity for a discerning purchaser.
The Location... - Bramble Mead is a quiet residential cul-de-sac within the sought after village of Balcombe, close to the mainline station. Village facilities include numerous shops and stores, tea room, village pub, social club, church, sports clubs, primary school and the mainline train station providing links to London, Gatwick Airport and Brighton. Haywards Heath and Crawley offer more extensive shopping and leisure facilities in addition to mainline railway stations (Haywards Heath to Victoria or London Bridge both approximately 47mins). By road, access to surrounding areas can be gained via the A23(M) which lies approximately 4.5 miles to the west at Handcross or north at Maidenbower.
Balcombe is surrounded by beautiful Sussex countryside. To the east are Balcombe lake & Ardingly Reservoir with their variety of footpaths, bridleways and angling facilities. The area is renowned for the standard of its schooling in both the private and state sectors with Balcombe Primary School being particularly reputable. A school bus runs through the village providing transport to Warden Park secondary school in the neighbouring village of Cuckfield. In the private sector Worth School is less than 4 miles distant in Turners Hill, whilst Ardingly College, Great Walstead and Burgess Hill School for Girls are all easily accessible.
