Birchen Lane, Lindfield, RH16

Birchen Lodge is a beautifully presented four bedroom house on a private lane, offering delightful family homes and this one does not disappoint. It's an immaculate property, within walking distance from the mainline station in Haywards Heath, full of natural light and sophistication, having been extensively rebuilt and designed with meticulous detail by the current owners to an exacting standard.

Stepping through the front door you will find a hallway with downstairs cloakroom and a stunning staircase leading to the first floor. The house has been designed to enjoy the wonderful views of the gardens and the surrounding fields, offering lots of natural light and clever detail. A gorgeous modern kitchen with fitted units and large central island and utility are off the hall, with a large triple aspect formal dining area. There is a gas wall fire, which divides these rooms, adding a stunning focal point but allowing the spaces to feel inclusive at the same time. There is also a beautiful double aspect sitting room with large glass doors leading to the west facing garden and a decked area for entertaining and simply sitting and enjoying the views.

Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, the principal suite includes a wall divide offering a shower space and separate cloakroom and a large and well appointed family bathroom.

Birchen Lodge is approached via Birchen Lane and sits at the end of this exclusive and private road. Surrounded by Sussex countryside it is idylic and offers a wrap around beautifully landscaped garden. There is a large garage and store and to one side of this a well appointed home office.

Haywards Heath is close by and has a great range of shopping and leisure facilities as well as the mainline train station, which is a 10-minute walk away, with fast and frequent commuter services to both London Victoria and London Bridge (from 42 mins), Gatwick Airport and Brighton.
