Guide Price: £250,000 - £260,000

Welcome To Park East...

A superb top (second) floor apartment forming part of Park East, within the award winning & Grade II listed Southdowns Park – a former Victorian hospital that was converted just before the millennium and this particular apartment is offered for sale for the first time since that conversion.

Being on the top (second) floor means this apartment enjoys the most stunning of southerly views towards the South Downs and enjoys sunshine throughout the day meaning there is plenty of natural light.

Upon entry you are welcomed by a generous central hallway and you’ll be immediately struck by the high ceilings – typical of the Victorian era. The sitting room is a great size, extending to over 19ft with sash windows making the most of those views.

The separate kitchen overlooks the north side of the development and is in good order with a range of integrated appliances including fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and oven/gas hob with extractor and breakfast bar.

Both bedrooms are doubles and the master has full width fitted wardrobes and its own ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom has gorgeous views, fitted wardrobes and is served by the separate shower room off the hall.

There are two storage cupboards off the hall and you have access to a large loft space (although we’re told this does not officially form part of the property).

The home has clearly been lovingly maintained and is in good order throughout. Further benefits include gas fired central heating and secure telephone entry system. There is also an allocated parking space on the south side of the development (space no. 204), which is visible from the apartment.

This apartment would make the perfect first time purchase, downsize or secure UK base for an international traveller and is offered for sale with no onward chain.

Where Is Southdowns Park?

Southdowns Park is an imposing Victorian residential building, formerly the St. Francis Hospital. The site was redeveloped in 1999 and is now a luxurious residence consisting of apartments, town and mews houses set within attractive and well-kept communal gardens overlooking the South Downs which the residents have full access to enjoy. This park-like space is wonderfully maintained, with far-reaching views towards the South Downs and several different seating areas and lawns. A beautiful spot for a morning coffee or afternoon picnic.

Residents of Southdowns Park have exclusive use of the large, well-equipped gymnasium and membership is available to use the social club, bowling green, two tennis courts and recently refurbished indoor swimming pool. Haywards Heath town centre provides extensive shopping facilities and is just over a mile distant. The town boasts both Waitrose and Sainsbury's Superstores and an array of bars & restaurants including Cote Brasserie, Pizza Express, Prezzo and Zizzi as well as independent Hart Country Stores, wolfox Coffee Roasters, mincka Coffee bar and Lockhart Tavern Gastropub.

The mainline station is two miles away offers fast & regular commuter services to London (Victoria/London Bridge in approximately 47 minutes), Gatwick International Airport and Brighton. By car surrounding areas are easily accessed via both the A272 and A23(M) with the latter lying west of Haywards Heath at Warninglid/Bolney.
