This remarkable detached Victorian property, established in the late 1870s, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment in one of Burgess Hill's most esteemed areas. With its generous layout and potential for modernization, this residence boasts significant historical charm characterized by high ceilings, period fireplaces, and intricate woodblock flooring across much of the ground floor. While it has been lovingly maintained over the years, the home now awaits a fresh vision to restore its grandeur while incorporating contemporary living standards.
The elegant exterior features traditional white render and classic sash-style windows under a tiled roof, with original timber double gates leading to a gravel driveway providing ample parking. Inside, original details like stained glass accents and spacious reception rooms that include impressive twin bay windows invite natural light throughout.
The substantial kitchen and breakfast area is equipped with a renowned Paul Bocuse range oven, blending past charm with future potential; however, it offers room for improvement to elevate functionality and aesthetic appeal. On the upper floor, four well-proportioned bedrooms allow for custom layout alterations or enhancements to create modern amenities. The expansive galleried landing could also be transformed into a creative space.
A noteworthy feature is the detached brick stable currently utilized as a garage/workshop that holds great promise for conversion into an office or annexe (subject to planning). The private rear garden provides additional outdoor space ripe for landscaping or extension projects.
In addition to its structural benefits, this property is conveniently positioned near local amenities including shops and schools while maintaining easy access to Burgess Hill station—making it an appealing prospect for families or investors looking to capitalize on its comprehensive renovation potential.
