WATCH THE VIDEO TOUR | Beautifully renovated five-bedroom Victorian semi with stunning open-plan kitchen, detached garden studio and south-facing garden, just a short walk from Haywards Heath station.
Behind the handsome bay-fronted Victorian façade lies a beautifully finished family home that perfectly balances timeless period character with contemporary open-plan living. Set across three floors and extending to almost 1,800 sq ft (including the garden office), this is a home designed for modern family life, entertaining and home working, all within an easy walk of Haywards Heath station.
The House...
From the moment you step inside, there's an immediate sense of space and character. The elegant through reception room stretches across the front of the house, with high ceilings, a beautiful bay window flooding the room with natural light and two original fireplaces adding warmth and personality. A cosy log-burning stove creates the perfect focal point for winter evenings, while the open layout naturally creates separate sitting and family areas without compromising the feeling of connection.
To the rear, the house opens into a superb kitchen/dining room that is undoubtedly the social heart of the home. Extended and thoughtfully designed, this impressive space combines sleek contemporary cabinetry with extensive worktops, integrated appliances and generous storage. Rooflights and full-width bi-folding doors fill the room with sunlight, creating a seamless connection to the garden and making summer entertaining effortless. Whether it's family breakfasts, dinner parties or children spilling out onto the lawn, this is a room that adapts beautifully to every stage of the day.
A downstairs cloakroom and useful built-in storage complete the ground floor.
The first floor offers three generous bedrooms, all retaining the proportions expected of a Victorian home. The guest bedroom spans the full width of the front of the property, enjoying two large sash windows, an attractive cast iron fireplace and bespoke fitted wardrobes. A stylish, recently updated family bathroom serves this floor.
On the second floor, the loft conversion provides an excellent principal suite. The impressive 19ft bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes, twin rooflights and excellent Juliet balcony, while the fifth bedroom is ideal as a nursery, dressing room or home office. A second contemporary bathroom completes the accommodation, providing excellent flexibility for growing families.
Throughout, the house has been exceptionally well maintained and tastefully updated, allowing a purchaser to move straight in and enjoy everything it has to offer. The blend of retained Victorian features, quality modern finishes and carefully considered improvements creates a home that feels both elegant and entirely practical.
Step Outside...
The rear garden has been designed for easy maintenance and maximum enjoyment. A generous paved terrace sits directly outside the bi-fold doors, creating a natural extension of the kitchen for outdoor dining and summer entertaining, before giving way to a level lawn framed by mature planting.
A real standout feature is the substantial detached garden studio. Fully insulated and fitted with power, lighting and heating, it offers outstanding versatility as a home office, gym, creative studio or games room, with additional secure storage incorporated within the building.
To the front, the property enjoys attractive kerb appeal with its classic red-brick elevations and bay windows, while a block-paved driveway provides off-road parking.
Altogether, this is a rare opportunity to purchase a fully renovated Victorian family home that effortlessly combines character, lifestyle and practicality in one of Haywards Heath's most sought-after residential locations.
