Guide Price £600,000 - £650,000 | If you love period property then this fabulous red brick, bay fronted Victorian end-terrace home with driveway parking and westerly garden will surely be of interest. The home is a literal stone's throw from both St Lawrence Primary School and the beautiful Hurstpierpoint High Street.
Are you looking for a Victorian family home in one of Sussex’s most desirable villages? If so, this handsome Edwardian end of terrace on Cuckfield Road could be just the one.
Set back from the road behind a pretty front garden, the house has real kerb appeal with classic red brick elevations, bay windows and plantation shutters giving a smart period feel. Better still, there is driveway parking for two cars to the side — a hugely useful feature in such a central village spot.
Inside, the house offers 1,524 sq ft / 141.6 sq m of well-balanced accommodation arranged over three floors. It has that lovely period feel buyers hope for, with tall ceilings, generous windows, fireplaces and built-in joinery, whilst still being practical for modern family life.
The hallway gives a warm welcome and includes useful understairs storage, ideal for coats, shoes and school bags.
The main sitting/dining room is a fabulous through room measuring over 27ft in length. The front sitting area is bright and inviting with a broad bay window, plantation shutters and a beautiful feature fireplace which has been regularly swept, although not used by the current owners. The room flows naturally through to the dining area at the rear, where French doors open straight onto the garden, perfect for summer entertaining or simply keeping an eye on children or pets outside.
To the rear of the house is the kitchen/breakfast room, a cheerful and sociable space with plenty of room for a family table. The timeless shaker-style cabinetry sits comfortably with the age of the house and there is ample storage and worktop space, together with room/plumbing for the usual appliances.
Large windows and a door onto the garden bring in plenty of natural light, and the layout works really well day-to-day, with direct access outside and a separate utility area beyond. There is also the essential downstairs WC/utility always handy in a busy family home.
The first floor is arranged over a split-level landing and offers three bedrooms plus the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a real highlight. Spanning the full width of the house, it is a beautifully proportioned room with a wide bay window, further sash-style window, period fireplace and an impressive wall of fitted wardrobes.
There are two further bedrooms on this floor, both comfortable and versatile. One enjoys a lovely outlook over the rear garden and would make a great child’s room, guest room or home office. The family bathroom is smartly presented with a bath and overhead shower, monochrome tiling and heated towel rail.
On the second floor is the fourth bedroom, tucked away at the top of the house. With a Velux window, eaves storage and a peaceful feel, it makes a brilliant teenager’s room, guest bedroom or quiet work-from-home space.
The west-facing rear garden is a lovely surprise and feels wonderfully private for such a central location, bathed in afternoon sunshine as a result of the westerly aspect.
Immediately off the house is a paved terrace, ideal for al-fresco dining, morning coffee or evening drinks. Steps rise to a lawn bordered by established planting, shrubs and climbers, giving the garden a relaxed, leafy feel without becoming too high maintenance.
There is gated side access back to the driveway, which is especially useful for bikes, bins, garden equipment and muddy paws.
To the front, the house is set back behind a small garden with pretty roses, with the driveway providing off-road parking for two cars.
