Greenlands Place, Burgess Hill, West Sussex, RH15

Exceptional modern home with heated outdoor swimming pool, situated in a tucked away position with nature reserve to the front and rear, and far-reaching views towards the South Downs.

Description

Wolstonbury House is an impressive detached family home, built by Greenplan Designer Homes as part of a select development of just three homes in 2024, and occupying a superb elevated position on an exclusive, gated private road.

The property offers beautifully presented and substantial accommodation with far-reaching views across Batchelors Farm nature reserve, towards the iconic water tower, the South Downs, and Wolstonbury Hill. Its southwest-facing gardens back directly onto a private nature reserve, creating a wonderful sense of space and connection to the surrounding countryside.

The accommodation is arranged over three floors and has been thoughtfully designed to meet the demands of modern family life; it has been finished to a high standard, with quality fittings, and further enhanced by the current owners. Features include Lutron lighting, underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, and luxury bathrooms.

A welcoming reception hall with a traditional staircase and excellent storage leads to a series of elegant reception rooms, including a sitting room centred around a striking stone fireplace with woodburning stove, together with a snug/study offering a quieter retreat.

At the rear of house is a wonerful open plan kitchen, dining and family room. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the kitchen is beautifully equipped with a comprehensive range of high-end cabinetry, quartz work surfaces, a Rangemaster cooker, space for a fridge/freezer and integrated appliances including a dishwasher and wine fridge, whilst bi-fold and French doors provide a seamless connection to the elevated terrace and gardens beyond. A generously proportioned utility room provides a practical space for the needs of day-to-day life.

At the rear of the kitchen is a study/home office, the plant room and also access to the integrated garage.

Above the garaging is a particularly versatile and extensive suite, currently utilised as a bedroom with en suite facilities. This flexible space is ideal as guest accommodation, a games room, teenager's suite, home office, gym or annexe, lending itself perfectly to multi-generational living or working from home.

The bedroom accommodation is equally impressive. The principal suite enjoys a private balcony overlooking the gardens and countryside beyond, together with a walk-in wardrobe and luxurious en suite bathroom featuring a bath, separate shower and twin wash basins. There are five further bedrooms (four benefit from their own en suite facilities), providing excellent accommodation for family members and visiting guests.

Outside
Outside, the property continues to impress; Greenlands Place is a private road, tucked away behind about three quarters of an acre of land which is designated as a nature reserve, and approached via a private road with electronic gates, giving a sense of seclusion and exclusivity. At the front of the house is a block paved driveway, with parking for several vehicles ahead of the integrated garaging, which has two electronically operated up and over doors.

It is set in beautifully landscaped gardens. To the front are well-stocked beds, with stone paths leading to a wide oak formed porch. The southwest-facing rear gardens have been cleverly designed to create a series of distinct outdoor spaces, including a substantial elevated entertaining terrace, a further seating area with far reaching views, and below, expansive lawns, mature trees and established planting. A heated swimming pool with electric cover forms a central feature of the garden, complemented by a summer house and the gardens have been cleverly designed to offer a high degree of screening. A gate opens directly onto approximately three acres of private land which is designated as a nature reserve and accessed only by the three properties on Greenlands Place, offering immediate access to wonderful walks and an exceptional natural backdrop.
