Downsview, Small Dole, Henfield

Hamlyn Smith are delighted to bring this four-bedroom house in Small Dole to the market. This popular cul-de-sac is a quiet residential road on the edge of the Sussex village of Small Dole. The house has its own driveway and is set back from the road with a lawned front garden. The front door opens to a porch from where you continue to the entrance hall on the left or to the fourth bedroom on the right. This bedroom is currently being used as a workspace and storage area and would be perfect as a home office as it feels slightly separate from the rest of the house. From the entrance hall, you come to the kitchen on the left which is a light and spacious room, with space for a small table, and a door that gives access down the side of the house. There are modern white units with a Neff Double electric oven, a Neff gas hob, and space and plumbing for a washing machine.
The living room is a wonderful space over five metres in length with views of the garden and a wood-burning stove in the fireplace. The living room leads onto a large conservatory from where views of the garden can be enjoyed all year round. From the conservatory, there are sliding doors onto the garden which has a patio area, a lawn, and raised beds. There is a beautiful Acer tree and the current owner has successfully grown many vegetables. There is a rhubarb patch that produces a crop from April to July. The shed has been dry-lined and has power and lighting. All the bedrooms are a good size, and the bathroom has a white suite and a separate shower cubicle with an electric shower. There are ceramic floor tiles and a chrome heated towel rail. The house is double-glazed and has gas central heating with a modern boiler located in the roof space. There is also a useful utility space off the conservatory which currently houses a tumble dryer.
