3 Bed Detached House For Sale

Heather Bank was originally built to house the workers of the shop two doors down (now a family home) and it stands out with its handsome brick façade, set back from Hailsham Road. 

Entering the front down a brick-paved path, bordered by beds with daffodils, croci and fragrant rosemary to the front door, with its white wooden portico you enter the home into a small porch with storage.  From there a door leads you into the front hall, with its stunning black and white tiled floor. This gives access to the stairs rising to the first floor and the front living room and the kitchen/ family room to the rear. 

The front living toom  room is, as with all the rooms in the house, beautifully decorated and quite rarely has an original; working fireplace with a beautiful metal framed surround with a grape-like detailing. 

The large central kitchen diner/living room or "family room" is the heart of this house with its beautiful L-shaped fitted kitchen and dual-aspect windows onto the gardens and above the sink onto the side of the property. In the centre of the room there is ample space for a dining area as well as a large living area with feature fireplace. 
A wooden stable door leads into the boot room with the perfect back entrance to leave muddy boots or keep family pets out of the kitchen. There is a downstairs WC with wooden half panelled walls and the side entrance from the driveway to the back of the house. 

A Double L-shaped stairway leads to the landing on the first floor and from here access to a feature- a balcony accessed by a stained glass detailed door that sits above the portico at the front of the property. There are 3 bedrooms off this landing and the family bathroom. The back two bedrooms have the most spectacular views of the south facing garden and more importantly the South Downs - rolling hills to wake to each morning. 
The master bedroom, situated at the front of the property features the front sash windows and this room and the 2nd bedroom both feature the original fireplaces with their hand painted tile-surrounds. 
The bathroom has a WC, bath and shower overhead.

OUTSIDE SPACE
The rear of the boot room opens onto a large, south-facing garden (there is also access through a back gate from the driveway). This well designed, totally enclosed space has a large, central lawn bordered with beds and a new Summer House - (measuring 21’8” x 10’3”) this could easily be used as a large home office for one or two. Behind the summer house is a summer kitchen area and to the back of the garden a charming green wooden shed to house all your garden tools.

There is off road parking along the driveway for 4-5 vehicles.
