Broadland Road, Burgess Hill

A distinguished family home where period charm meets modern living, complemented by private south-facing grounds of approximately 1 acre, a detached home office and double garage

Burgess Hill is a vibrant town with a comprehensive array of shops, post office, restaurants and public houses. Its mainline train station provides regular rail services to London, Brighton and Gatwick. There are also a range of revered state and private schools locally with Burgess Hill Girls and Birchwood Grove Primary school with easy walk.

Believed to date back to the 1920s and having evolved sympathetically over the years, this substantial detached family home combines period charm with the space and versatility demanded by modern family life. Thoughtfully extended and comprehensively improved by the current owners, the property now offers almost 3,000 sq ft of beautifully balanced accommodation. At the heart of the home lies an impressive kitchen and breakfast room, designed as a natural gathering space for family and friends. Fitted with granite worktops and a range of integrated appliances it provides both style and practicality in equal measure. Beyond, a well-appointed utility and boot room offers excellent additional storage. There is a centrally positioned dining room along with adjoining conservatory enjoying delightful views over the garden. Undoubtedly one of the home's standout features is the magnificent sitting room, where a vaulted ceiling, open fireplace and twin sets of doors opening onto the terrace combine to create a wonderfully light-filled living space. Arranged over the first floor are five generous bedrooms serviced by a spacious family bathroom. The principal suite enjoys the luxury of an extensive en-suite bathroom complete with both bath and separate shower. Outside, the property is approached via a private driveway providing extensive parking and access to the double garage, which benefits from electric doors. The rear garden enjoys a desirable southerly aspect and has been thoughtfully designed to provide a wonderful backdrop for family life and entertaining. Established beech hedging and mature planting create a high degree of privacy, whilst generous terraces offer ample space for outdoor dining and relaxation. A swimming pool forms the centrepiece of the garden and, whilst currently requiring refurbishment, presents an exciting opportunity to create a superb outdoor leisure space. Completing the outside accommodation is a detached home office and adjoining store room, ideal for those seeking a dedicated workspace away from the main house.
