Station Approach, Haywards Heath, RH17

This absolutely charming three-bedroom cottage is built in the traditional West Sussex vernacular with partially tile-hung elevations and offers a wealth of character inside and out. The property dates from c.1890, is arranged over two floors and offers a layout well suited to downsizers, professionals or those seeking an investment property or a second home in the country; the house has most recently been used as a holiday home. Internally it is beautifully presented in a countryinspired style, with period features including exposed beams, wood parquet flooring and original fireplaces, with a mostly neutral décor that would be easily personalised by the new owner.
