5 bed detached house for sale

Furnace Wood, East Grinstead, West Sussex RH19

Following a carefully planned and beautifully executed program of improvements, The Birches is now a home for the 21st century. Well-defined spaces are complemented by a contemporary yet gracious design theme. The extension, designed by a local architect, provides visual flair with its’ black zinc cladding and stunning solid oak, triple glazed sliding doors. Particular attention has been paid to energy efficiency; triple glazed windows (with integral thermal blinds), solar panels, low carbon air source heating system and thermally insulated remote garage doors all contribute to the outstanding ‘A’ rated EPC.

The split-level home occupies a mature plot, set in a highly regarded, quiet private road with superb transport links close by. Three Bridges station provides frequent and fast trains to London in around 35 minutes and Gatwick is easily accessible. Both are about a10 minute drive away.

Internally, the house is light and spacious, with the three levels offering a pleasing blend of privacy and practicality. The bespoke German kitchen has extensive storage, with Dekton countertops providing acres of working space. High end appliances include ovens with Wi-Fi controlled recipes, probe cooking and air fry functions. Eating, cooking and sitting areas flowing seamlessly and the utility is fitted to the same exacting standard.

The separate sitting room at the front of the house is a haven of calm with an inset, remote-controlled gas fireplace creating the focal point.

A wide staircase rises from the entrance hall to the principal suite with dressing area; two further bedrooms share a family bathroom on this floor. A second staircase leads down from the main hallway to the ground floor where the guest suite and study can be found. The integral double garage has a large, dry undercroft providing secure storage.

Externally there is ample parking on the in-and-out driveway. The double garage has a super-fast 7kw EV charge point and the west facing garden offers a high degree of privacy and can be enjoyed from the huge, Millboard deck. The oak framed summer house has double glazed bi-fold doors, with power, heat and light. This is currently used as a gym but could equally be another spot to enjoy the easily maintain 0.5 acre garden. A large, insulated tractor shed has power and light, and completes the outdoor space.
