The Paddocks, Bolnore Village, Haywards Heath

An attractive 3 storey detached family house with double detached garage and secluded south facing garden. Built by Crest Nicholson in 2001 the property stands in a tiny enclave of just a few detached homes in the popular upper village area of Bolnore. To the front of the house a deep strip of woodland offers permanent protection against any change of view and an immediate place to enjoy right outside the front door. The interior has been significantly enlarged and enhanced over the years with a wonderful new master suite throughout the original loft area. In addition, a full frontage extension was completed in 2016, to create bigger family and bedroom spaces, together with an amazing outdoor cabin for hobbies, cinema or gym. Having parked on the extensive driveway and on entry into the hall, the visitor will be taken by the size and space in the enlarged hallway with its bespoke cloaks and shoes cupboard. A WC is sited to the righthand side and the stairs take you to the upper floors. Immediately ahead of you is the kitchen breakfast room which was remodelled in Leicht units with a breakfast bar and has views across the garden. The units are cream coloured under black granite counter tops. There is double door access to the garden from both the kitchen and the lounge. Adjacent to this room is the main living room with fireplace and similar aspects as the kitchen. Pocket doors connect to the enlarged dining room with its views across to the woodland and a recess to one side acts as a perfect separate study area. On the first floor there are 4 bedrooms, one being the ensuite guest bedroom, whilst the others share a lovely modern bath/shower room. The second floor is dedicated to the new master bedroom and ensuite created in about 2006.  There is modern double glazing throughout. Thomas Sanderson supplied and fitted plantation shutters are throughout the house giving each room a slightly enhanced sense of space. The bespoke joinery in the form of the cloaks cupboard in the hall continues with other fitted units in the dining room and living room. The gas boiler was replaced in 2023. A number of the bedrooms are fitted with stunning Sharps wardrobes.Outside the double detached garage sits to the left of the house, with a pair of up-and-over doors. A space has been created at the back of the garage enclosing it from within and served by its own internal door. This has been used as a sound resistant studio but offers a secondary office environment if required. The rear garden is accessible from the righthand side through a gate. A wide patio straddles the back of the house with steps up to an area of lawn, all enclosed by fencing, some trees and shrubbery. A delightful feature of the outside space is the family cabin, built in 2018 of timber. This is open fronted and has numerous practical uses for both relaxing and hobbies, with power, lighting and internet all laid on.  There is high speed direct fibre internet connection to the house. A small annual service charge is levied by the developers estate managers Pembroke, currently just £208 paid twice yearly.LOCATIONThe key to this property is its peaceful setting, yet in reality it is only a relatively easy walk through to the town centre and railway station some 30 mins walk. Bolnore Village is served by a COOP store for all those daily essentials with the town of Haywards Heath having both Sainsburys and Waitrose supermarkets. There is a primary school within the Bolnore community just a 5 minute walk away with excellent secondary schools at Oathall College and Warden Park about a mile away. Haywards Heath has a busy and vibrant town centre with a wide range of mainstream shops, banks, cafes and restaurants. The surrounding countryside is very attractive and ideal for dog walking, runners or cyclists. The A23 dual carriageway, linking up with Brighton city centre, Gatwick airport and the M25 is just over 5 miles to the west. Haywards Heath railway station offers fast regular services into London Bridge and Victoria from circa 45 minutes.INFORMATION Council tax band F Mid Sussex District CouncilServices  All mains services Estate service charge  Currently £208 every 6 months
