Welcome Home...

Welcome to number 11 Boxes Lane – a fabulous detached 1950s home offering just under 2,100 sq ft of flexible, family friendly accommodation in this peaceful, sought-after close in the quintessential Sussex village of Horsted Keynes.

Upon entry, the tone is set by the generous central hallway which leads to each of the ground floor rooms and enjoys engineered oak flooring. You have the essential ground floor cloakroom to your right and a study to your right, which was created as part of an extension in 2003/4.

The sitting room extends to 17ft and is an inviting space for the family to gather, with the fireplace being creating a natural focal point. The large window overlooks the garden and fills the room with natural light throughout the day due to its southerly aspect.

The family room is incredibly versatile and leads through to the conservatory, which has ‘French’ doors that open on to the garden.

The kitchen/diner is a great size with plenty of storage and prep space and the granite worktops add a touch of luxury. The large tiled flooring is contemporary and hardy in equal measure whilst the separate utility leads through to the garage. French doors open on to the garden’s southerly terrace – great for inside-outside living during the summer months. There is also a handy side door that leads out to a useful covered lean-to.

On the first floor you are spoilt for choice, with four excellent and genuine double bedrooms, set around a central landing.

The principle bedroom has its own modern ensuite shower room and extensive fitted wardrobes. As the house sits in an elevated position this room enjoys far reaching views over the Sussex Weald through the bespoke plantation shutters.

The second bedroom looks over the rear garden and there is space to create another ensuite, if required (plumbing in place).

The third bedroom runs the full depth of the house, extending to an impressive 18ft with a dual aspect. The fourth bedroom overlooks the rear.

The second, third and fourth bedrooms are served by the stylish family bathroom with overhead power shower.

Further attributes on this home include oil fired central heating (tank positioned at the end of the garden), double glazed windows throughout and superfast broadband connection.

Scope/Potential....

Whilst the home offers plenty of accommodation there is plenty of potential for further extension. The loft space is enormous and ripe for conversion, with plenty of space on the landing to create a staircase. There is also potential to remove the conservatory and extend across the flat rear elevation. Any work is of course STPP.

Stepping Outside...

The home sits 0.15 acre plot with a fabulous, due south facing, garden with a large expanse of lawn and plenty of pretty, established planting including bluebells, roses, acers . Being south facing means you enjoys sunshine throughout the day, making this the perfect outside oasis for al-fresco dining or relaxing with a glass of something chilled during the balmy summer evenings.

The fully powered garden studio is perfect for those who work from home but want separation from the main house.

There is a gated side access that leads to the front where you have a pretty garden and driveway parking for several cars.
