This extended three-bedroom family home has been thoughtfully extended and improved throughout by the current owners and is situated in the sought-after district of Southgate, offering particularly convenient access to Crawley town centre and mainline station. With the further addition of a double driveway, this property is ideal for first time buyers and families alike.
The front door opens on to a bright entrance hallway, with tiled floor and useful understairs storage cupboard. To the rear of the house is the stunning kitchen family room, which is very much the hub of the home. The thoughtful extension has provided considerable extra reception space and there is ample room for an 8-10 seater dining table, with natural light flooding in from skylights above, and bi-fold doors opening on to the garden. The kitchen itself is fitted with an attractive range of wall and base units, with a sink/drainer set within the worktops, integrated washing machine, integrated dishwasher, integrated double oven/microwave and space for a free-standing American-style fridge/freezer. An island divides the kitchen and dining area and provides substantial additional storage, also housing an induction hob. Following round from the kitchen is a separate living room, with bay window to the front and a feature electric fireplace.
Stairs from the entrance hall lead to the first floor landing, with access to an airing cupboard and the loft. The latter is boarded and houses the combination boiler; there is a light and a ladder. The main bedroom has a window to the rear, with a pleasant outlook over the garden, and built in sliding door wardrobes. Bedroom two is another double room with built-in sliding door wardrobes and additional cupboard over the stairs. Bedroom three is a good size single room with built-in wardrobes and additional cupboard over the stairs. The modern family bathroom is fitted in a white suite comprising low level WC, wash hand basin and panel bath with wall mounted shower. Two frosted windows to the rear allow in plenty of natural light; there is a wall mounted heated towel rail and the bathroom is finished with laminate flooring and part tiled walls.
Outside, there is a block paved driveway with parking for two vehicles and brick retaining walls to both sides. The private rear garden is delightfully low maintenance, with a patio area abutting the rear of the property and the remainder laid to artificial turf. There is a charming water feature and raised beds to the side, with a BBQ and further paved seating area at the back of the garden. This is conveniently sheltered with access to an outbuilding currently arranged as a bar, this being timber framed with glazed door and windows, power and light.
This ideal family home benefits from an excellent location in this sought-after part of central Crawley. There is easy access to local shops and schools, while commuters will appreciate the convenience of Crawley town centre and mainline railway station, providing direct transport links to London and the South Coast. An internal viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the improvements that have been made to create this modern family home.
