Attractive detached 1920s home in one of Burgess Hill’s best roads.

Description

Also known as 'Pendeen', 46 Park Road is an attractive detached house built in 1926, with painted, part-rendered elevations and an elegant pillared porch. The house has well-proportioned rooms and a good layout, with potential (subject to the necessary consents) to further extend both the ground and first floors; it is presented in good order with a pleasing combination of period details such as high ceilings and picture rails, and modern fittings including timber-framed sash-style double glazed windows and a stylish bathroom.

The front door opens to the entrance hall, either side of which are two formal reception rooms: a dual-aspect sitting room, and a formal dining room with an elegant feature fireplace. The kitchen has bi-fold doors opening to the terrace, space for a breakfast table, and is fitted with a good range of floor and wall mounted cabinets with granite worktops and several integrated appliances; there is space for a larder-style fridge/freezer, slimline dishwasher and washing machine.

A versatile study (which could also be a playroom or snug) and a cloakroom complete the ground floor.

There are three bedrooms and a family bathroom lying off a spacious split-level galleried landing, all of a good size and bedroom one benefitting from a range of built in wardrobes.

Pendeen is set back from Park Road, behind a front lawn bounded by neat hedging, with block paved driveway offering parking for two or three cars. There is gated access at the side of the house to a useful paved storage area, leading in turn to the terrace and rear garden. The garden is of particular note: very well-tended and planted with a colourful array of shrubs and flowers. A paved terrace adjoins the house, with a step down to lawn and a path, part-covered by a pergola with climbing roses, leads down the garden. At the far end is a screened storage area with steel shed, and a kitchen garden with three raised beds and a greenhouse.
