3 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

This well-proportioned three bedroom semi detached home is situated on the ever popular Chanctonbury estate in Burgess Hill. Offering flexible living space, an exceptional garden layout and excellent future potential. Neutral décor throughout, offering a blank canvas for new owners.

The front door opens into a very useful porch area, with a newly fitted shower room to the right, comprising a full-sized shower, WC and wash basin. The porch benefits from a glazed internal door, which opens into a welcoming central hallway. From the hallway, the front reception room is positioned to the left, measuring 3.5m x 3.4m, providing a comfortable and versatile living space.

Straight ahead lies the impressive open plan kitchen and rear extension, designed with both practicality and sociability in mind. The kitchen measures 5.7m x 3.9m and features integrated cooking appliances, sleek floor-to-ceiling cream high-gloss handleless cupboards and a substantial central island with four storage cupboards beneath. The island comfortably seats four to six people, making it ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen flows naturally into the rear extension, measuring 5.2m x 2.6m, creating a continuous loop through the living space. This area is flooded with natural light and features bi-fold doors opening directly onto the patio, ideal for indoor–outdoor living.

Upstairs, the family bathroom comprises a bath, separate shower cubicle, wash basin and WC. It benefits from a full-size window, good storage space and a heated towel radiator with room for multiple towels. The principal bedroom measures 3.8m x 3.5m, overlooks the rear garden and features a full wall of built-in wardrobes, offering excellent storage. The second bedroom measures 3.4m x 3.0m and overlooks the front of the property. The third bedroom measures 2.7m x 2.4m, also faces the front and is large enough to accommodate a double bed if required.

From the landing there is access to a loft hatch with pull-down ladder. The loft is fully boarded to a very high standard, providing excellent storage and clear potential for a full loft conversion (subject to the usual permissions). Many neighbouring properties have already completed similar extensions. The house features a gabled roof, which further supports conversion potential.

The rear garden is a standout feature, measuring 135 feet by 26 feet, and is arranged across multiple thoughtfully designed zones. Immediately outside the bi-fold doors is a patio area, which leads up timber steps to a timber-decked paddling pool area. This area is ideal for sunbathing and relaxing, and the pool can remain in place year-round. The surrounding area is finished in AstroTurf and enclosed by a sliding picket fence with gated access, providing an important safety feature for young children while remaining fully removable if not required.

The outbuilding runs parallel to the decked pool area, with a narrow pathway between the two. This pathway continues through the garden, leading into the brick-paved section. Beyond the pool area is a lawned section, bordered by brick paving. The pathway continues past the lawn to a sleeper step, which leads up onto a further AstroTurfed seating area, used for garden furniture during the summer months. Continuing straight on, the garden opens into an established natural woodland area, creating a peaceful and private backdrop. This section includes a professionally built treehouse and a self-built children’s climbing apparatus. Further back is an area currently used to enjoy socialising with friends around the fire pit on pleasant evenings.

The woodland is rich in wildlife, with regular sightings and sounds of woodpeckers, owls, squirrels, badgers, foxes and muntjac deer, set within very ancient, well-established woodland. Beyond the woodland, and positioned significantly lower than the garden, runs the London–Brighton railway line. Trains can be heard but are not visible, ensuring no visual intrusion into the garden.

The substantial brick-and-timber outbuilding measures 3.5m x 3.2m, with an additional rear room measuring 3.2m x 1.7m. It features double-glazed doors, side window panels, electricity, lighting and multiple power points in both rooms. The rear room has a full-size double-glazed window overlooking the paved and lawned areas, making the building ideal for use as a home office, studio, gym or hobby space.

The front garden is decked for low maintenance, with planters providing colour and variety. There is a bike shelter running the length of the porch. An ornamental cherry tree sits to the front, featuring a birdhouse where blue tits have nested consistently for the past six years, adding charm and character. The property provides off-road parking for one vehicle, a shared driveway with full-time access to the rear and outbuilding, and unrestricted on-street parking.
