Description

Built by Sigma Homes in 2020, 15 Upton Drive is a beautifully presented detached family home, distinguished by its attractive half-weatherboarded brick elevations. Set within a small, thoughtfully designed development adjoining open farmland, the property enjoys a central position in the heart of Ansty, with convenient access to Haywards Heath (with its mainline railway station) and the A/M23 to the west.

Offering superbly appointed accommodation arranged over two floors, the home is ideal for modern family living. High ceilings, stylish décor, and contemporary fittings throughout create a light, spacious and inviting atmosphere, complemented by good storage.

The welcoming entrance hall leads to a cloakroom with WC and a versatile formal sitting room at the front of the house. To the rear, the open-plan kitchen and dining room has French doors opening directly onto the garden. The kitchen is fitted with a sleek range of contemporary grey and wood-effect wall and base units, with quartz worktops, limed-oak effect flooring, and appliances including including two Bosch ovens, a four-ring Bosch induction hob with extractor, an integrated fridge/freezer, wine fridge, dishwasher, and washer/dryer.

Upstairs, a spacious galleried landing leads to four bedrooms. The dual-aspect principal suite features a dressing area with built-in wardrobes and a modern en suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms all include built-in storage and are served by a well-appointed family bathroom. Bedroom four is currently arranged as a study.

Externally, the property benefits from a private driveway with parking for two vehicles, leading to an integral garage. The front garden is laid to lawn with young shrubs and a pretty lavender bed. A gated side path provides access to the rear garden, which has been attractively re-landscaped to include a paved patio ideal for outdoor dining, a generous lawn, gravel pathways, well-stocked flower beds, and newly planted trees.
