Meadowsweet Drive, Lindfield, Haywards Heath, West Sussex, RH16

Very well presented, modern three-bedroom family home on the edge of Lindfield, combining stylish living spaces, thoughtfully landscaped garden and access to excellent transport links.

Description

Located within 20 minutes’ walk (c.one mile) of Lindfield’s Common, charming High Street and schools, 10 Meadowsweet Drive occupies a tucked away setting, overlooking light woodland and surrounded by similarly attractive properties in the well-regarded Heathwood Park development, constructed by David Wilson Homes in 2016.

Owned by our clients since new, this much-loved family home is neatly presented throughout and well-suited to the demands of modern life, offering a considered layout with spacious accommodation to include three bedrooms (one of which has an en suite shower room) an open plan sitting and dining reception and a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room with contemporary cabinetry and integrated appliances.

Transport links are excellent, with Haywards Heath station just under two miles away, offering fast and frequent services to Central London in under an hour and Brighton in as little as 14 minutes.

The front door opens to a welcoming entrance hall equipped with practical Karndean flooring, a useful understairs cupboard and access to a convenient cloakroom.

Overlooking the front, the kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a comprehensive range of neutral-coloured base and wall cupboards, complemented by smart metro-tiled splashbacks, driftwood-effect worktops, distinctive chequerboard flooring, integrated appliances and space for a breakfast table and chairs.

At the rear, a generously sized reception room spans the full width of the house, enjoying a delightful garden aspect. French doors open on to a granite-paved terrace, installed in 2024, perfect for relaxing or entertaining during warmer months.

The principal bedroom benefits from an integrated wardrobe and an en suite shower room comprising modern, white sanitaryware and a spacious shower enclosure. There are two further bedrooms, both with views over the garden, which share the family bathroom. A generous amount of storage and an airing cupboard on the landing provides practical storage, while a hatch offers easy access to the roof space for additional storage needs.

The rear garden has been tastefully landscaped to create an inviting and versatile space for all ages to enjoy. The striking granite paved terrace is ideal for outdoor dining and has steps rising to the slightly raised sleeper bordered level lawn which is ideal for youngsters and pets alike. A further decked terrace nestled to the far boundary offers a sheltered spot to catch the morning sun under the dappled shade of a mature apple tree.

A garage adjoining the side of the house has room for a car, as well as everyday storage for bikes, tools and a mower or a workbench if preferred. The private driveway in front has an EV charger.
