Colwood Lane, Warninglid

£750,000

Guide price

A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a pretty Victorian lodge property, standing in a plot of just over an acre with a useful barn building and ample scope for extension, subject to consent. The site is secluded and comprises gardens to three sides of the house and an area of light woodland to the southern boundary. The building formed the eastern lodge to the Colwood Court estate and sits adjacent to the secondary estate driveway.

The original lodge has been extended to create a large living room and dining room, utility and shower room. There is certainly ample space to explore further additions both into the loft areas and a larger footprint, if consent is given by the local authority.

Approached through double gates off Colwood Lane the drive terminates outside a timber barn style building with concrete floor and benefits from power and lighting, an ideal place to keep several cars, a gym area or workshop. Inside the house, the original porch and front door remain, which open into a reception hall. Here a former fireplace is waiting to be opened up. Doors lead to 2 double bedrooms and a shower room as well as through to the kitchen. The kitchen is well fitted with oven and hob and plenty of wall and floor storage. A side door leads out to the rear garden from here. The kitchen follows via a door into the main reception, a large L shaped room with dining and sitting areas enjoying views across the gardens. All the living areas have hard floors with the bedrooms and reception hall being carpeted.

Colwood Lane runs north to south between the Cuckfield Lane in Warninglid and Cross Colwood Lane in Bolney. It is a quiet and semi rural setting, yet only a 10 minute drive from the shops at Cuckfield and 15 minutes from Haywards Heath town centre and main line railway station. (London Bridge and Victoria from about 45 mins). Stunning local countryside is literally accessible from the door step.
