Lovely lucastes | This substantial detached family home was built in 1960, sits on a 1/3 acre plot and has been substantially extended to create the perfect family home. Location wise it forms part of the prestigious and highly desirable 'Lucastes' area of western Haywards Heath - ideal for the mainline station and great schools.

The House...

This substantial detached family home sits impressively in an elevated position on the prestigious Lucastes Lane on the favoured ‘Lucastes’ area on western Haywards Heath conveniently located for highly regarded schools, the mainline station, two superstores and beautiful open countryside.

The home was originally built in 1960 and sits on a generous 1/3 acre plot, which has allowed the current owners to substantially extend the house in 2019 to create a spacious and incredibly versatile home that is ideal for a large family and even offers the possibility of multi-generational living.

Upon entry you’re welcomed by a central hallway with lovely original parquet flooring flowing through.

The kitchen is the hub of any home and at 24ft there is plenty of space for a dining area. The kitchen itself is equipped with excellent storage and plenty of prep space. There is an open pantry and a range of integrated appliances including double oven and gas hob.

French doors open out on to the paved making this a great space for inside-outside living during the summer months.

Adjacent to the kitchen is the former dining room. This versatile space is currently used as a family room/snug but could easily be a generous home office.

The sitting room is an inviting, triple aspect room with more original herringbone parquet flooring paying homage to the age of the house. The log burner provides a natural focal point and is perfect for a chilly winter’s evening. Again, French doors open on to the garden.

On the first floor you have four double bedrooms and two bath/shower rooms. The main bedroom is a generous double, overlooks the rear garden, has a fitted double wardrobe and its own modern ensuite shower room, with cleverly placed skylight allowing in natural light.

The second and fourth bedrooms also have fitted wardrobes and overlook the garden. The second bedroom overlooks the front and is a good size double room. These bedrooms are served by the large family bathroom which has a contemporary finish and large storage cupboard.

The home has gas fired central heating and is fully double glazed, whilst the neutral décor provides an incoming buyer with a blank canvas.

The integral garage is plenty large enough for a car and provides excellent storage with an electric roller door.

The Annexe

When the house was extended, it created an impressive and incredibly flexible two bedroom attached annexe that is perfect for a live-in relative, teenagers or as a potential income stream as a rental (subject to any necessary consents). The space could also easily be used as part of the main house and is connected via door off the porch.

On the ground floor, you have a living room that leads through to the modern kitchen with integrated induction hob and oven.

Stairs lead up to two ensuite double bedrooms.

The annexe also enjoys its own private front door, meaning there can be a degree of separation from the main house, if preferred.

Step Outside...

Sitting on an enviable 1/3 acre plot, the home enjoys a wide rear garden that is arranged over two levels. The large, paved terrace is the perfect spot for a barbecue and there is a large level of area of lawn that is perfect for children to play.

There is a range of established plants, trees and shrubs and a second terrace area enjoys the evening sunshine.

There is side access and to the front there is plenty of parking on the large block paved driveway that is flanked by two areas of green garden.
