4 bed detached house for sale

Paddock Walk, Burgess Hill, West Sussex RH15

Ref MG1259

Tucked away in a luxury gated development of just eight detached homes, Paddock Walk is somewhere where you feel at home as soon as you turn off Folders Lane. A sweeping drive beyond the gated entrance hides the homes as you turn in. Welcome to number 4, where bespoke design and luxury living meet a semi-rural outlook.

The distinct design of this home, The Beacon – named after the Sussex landmark on the horizon, is something special. You can imagine lazy morning coffees in the hub of the home, the kitchen, along with dinner parties with friends and family. Bi-fold doors fully open to the south, looking towards the fishery and bringing the outside in. The superb specification starts in this room, with an individually designed Windmill kitchen, Quooker tap, Blanco sink and Bosch appliances. The 30mm stone worktops, Havwoods oak flooring and underfloor heating complement the Crittall style doors. Practically, there is ample preparation space, an island with excellent storage and that all important utility room. Overlooking the front is a double aspect sitting room, whilst an office/playroom provides a flexible space to complete the ground floor, along with a cloakroom.

The size and layout of the bedrooms on the first floor will also be very appealing. There are two suites, one to the front and one to the rear. The principal bedroom overlooks the rear and has a recessed wardrobe area along with its own shower room, whilst the guest bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and a view to the front. Both en-suites and the family bathroom provide that luxury boutique feel, with Crosswater sanitaryware, Mandarin Stone tiling and carefully chosen finishes giving each room its own individual look. Two further bedrooms complete the first floor.

The landscaped garden has been designed to complement the surrounding area, with beautiful views beyond. The low level fencing provides an outlook towards the fishery, whilst the southerly aspect means the garden enjoys plenty of sunshine. To the front, the brick-block drive and oak-framed car barn provide ample parking, along with access to the rear from both sides and an EV charging point.

The house is heated by a Samsung air source heat pump, with underfloor heating to the ground floor and thermostatic radiators upstairs. From the individually designed kitchen and carefully chosen finishes to the landscaped garden and considered layout of the development, Paddock Walk has been designed to create a relaxed environment, plenty of privacy and a community on hand.

The setting

One of the things I really like about Paddock Walk is the balance. You have the privacy and open outlook of an edge of town location, whilst Burgess Hill and its amenities are only a short distance away. There are plenty of opportunities to get outside too. Ditchling Common Country Park is around three minutes by car, with its woodland, open heathland and network of paths, whilst Bedelands Nature Reserve and Chailey Common provide further places to explore. And when you want to venture a little further, the South Downs National Park, with its miles of walking, cycling and riding routes, is right on your doorstep.

For commuters, both Burgess Hill railway stations is within 1 mile, with regular direct services to London Bridge and London Victoria from 50 minutes and Brighton from 14 minutes. Burgess Hill itself provides a good range of shops, restaurants, cafés and everyday amenities, whilst the surrounding villages of Ditchling, Plumpton and Wivelsfield Green are all within easy reach.

Families are also well catered for, with a good choice of schools in and around Burgess Hill, including local primary and secondary schools alongside independent options such as Burgess Hill Girls, Great Walstead and Hurstpierpoint College. There is plenty to enjoy locally too, from a visit to Ridgeview Wine Estate to a walk across the surrounding countryside. It is a location that gives you the convenience of being close to town, without feeling like you are living in the middle of it.
