Spanning approximately 1,500 sqft, it features four spacious bedrooms (with potential for a fifth, a study or walk-in wardrobe) and versatile, stylish living throughout. The private driveway provides parking for up to four vehicles — a rare find in this sought-after location. A truly exceptional home offering comfort, style, and convenience in one of Burgess Hill’s most attractive neighbourhoods.

Originally built in the 1950s and extensively transformed within the last year, this exceptional residence offers a stylish, energy-efficient sanctuary in the tranquil and highly desirable Clayton Drive. Just 0.7 miles from Burgess Hill station with direct trains to London and Brighton, and within easy reach of the town centre, Waitrose, cafés, and weekly market, the location perfectly combines convenience with serenity. The neighbouring village of Hassocks, only 2.5 miles away, adds boutique shops, artisanal cafés, and access to the South Downs National Park — perfect for scenic walks, cycling, or weekend escapes. Families benefit from excellent local schools, including London Meed Primary and The Burgess Hill Academy, while nature lovers can enjoy Bedelands Nature Reserve, the Green Circle walk, and St John’s Park.

Inside, the home is equally impressive. A welcoming entrance hall with engineered wooden flooring sets the tone, with a practical utility closet for laundry and storage. The ground floor features a luxurious family bathroom with marble surfaces, brushed chrome fittings, and a soaking tub — evoking the feel of a boutique hotel. A versatile guest bedroom/snug sits to the front, while the bay-fronted master bedroom offers a sleek en-suite with integrated electric toothbrush stand, inset mirror, marble tops, brushed chrome hardware, and exquisite tiling.

At the heart of the home is the spectacular L-shaped kitchen/dining/living space, flooded with natural light from expansive bi-fold doors that open seamlessly onto the landscaped garden. The bespoke kitchen is finished to an exceptional standard with Quartz stone worksurfaces, a boiling/filtering and chilled water tap, and a full suite of integrated appliances including double oven, induction hob, dishwasher, and wine fridge. A state-of-the-art wet underfloor heating system across the ground floor provides comfort and a touch of everyday luxury.

Upstairs, a light-filled landing leads to two generous double bedrooms and a dedicated dressing room, 5th Bedroom or office space, all serviced by a contemporary shower room with electric underfloor heating, walk-in shower, basin and toilet. Opposite, a walk-in airing cupboard houses the pressurised hot water cylinder and Worcester boiler, doubling as a convenient storage space.

Externally, the property impresses equally. A hardstanding driveway accommodates up to four vehicles with a EV (Electrical Vehicle) Charging Point, with access via a shared drive to a detached garage. The south-facing rear garden is a private oasis, featuring a full-width tiled terrace, neat lawn, outside power and water, and a pathway and side door to the garage. Most striking is the uninterrupted outlook over woodland and open fields, creating an unrivalled sense of tranquillity and privacy. Additional on-road parking is available within the close.

More than a home, this is a lifestyle statement — elegant, refined, and perfectly positioned in one of Burgess Hill’s most coveted neighbourhoods.
