4 bed property for sale

Cagefoot Lane, Henfield BN5

East Park House is a substantial three-bedroom semi-detached house on Henfield’s highly desirable Cagefoot Lane. Occupying a generous plot, the property offers over 150 square metres of well-arranged accommodation with excellent ground-floor living space, a beautifully established garden, and parking for several vehicles as well as a garage.

Originally part of a larger residence built in the early 20th century, East and West Park House were created when the house was divided in 1985. Since then, the house has been thoughtfully extended on the ground floor and a conservatory was added in 2014.

The welcoming entrance hall leads to an expansive kitchen/breakfast room at the front of the house. Bespoke solid wood cabinetry, painted a soft grey-blue, is topped with granite worktops. A double butler sink is positioned beneath a bay window, and display shelving provides space to show crockery. The green Aga sits beneath a tiled splashback and has both a roasting and simmering oven and two hotplates. There is an additional electric fan oven with grill and microwave, a four-burner gas hob, and a recently installed Bosch integrated dishwasher. Karndean flooring, both beautiful and practical, completes the room. Adjoining the kitchen, a utility room offers space for a washing machine, tumble dryer, and tall fridge freezer, along with additional worktop space.

To the rear, the spacious living room overlooks the garden and has a stone fireplace with brick hearth housing a log burner . Bespoke cabinetry flanks the fireplace, offering both storage and display space. A wide arched opening connects the living room to the dining room, allowing the two spaces to flow well together while remaining distinct. The dining room opens into a double-glazed, timber-framed conservatory—painted in Chartwell green—that provides further living space and a lovely connection to the garden. The layout lends itself well to both everyday living and entertaining, with ample space for larger gatherings and several points of access to the garden. A study located off the dining room provides a peaceful workspace with garden views. The fitted shelving and cabinetry in this room will remain with the property.

The rear garden is particularly striking in spring, with wisteria, camellias, rhododendrons, and azaleas creating vibrant colour. A lawn occupies the central area, bordered by flowerbeds, while a paved terrace nearest the house offers space for outdoor dining. A raised vegetable bed sits to one side, with espaliered apple and apricot trees behind. The garden also includes a large shed, greenhouse, two water butts, and an outside tap. A wide side return, currently used as a BBQ area, adds further versatility.

Upstairs are three generous and light-filled bedrooms. The front bedroom includes a full wall of fitted wardrobes and shuttered windows. Two bedrooms enjoy views over the garden; one has built-in storage and the other benefits from a modern en-suite shower room. The family bathroom has a corner bath, separate shower cubicle, WC, and handbasin set in a vanity unit. There are white shutters at the window.

Cagefoot Lane is a quiet, tree-lined lane moments from Henfield’s bustling high street. The village sits on the edge of the South Downs National Park and has a thriving community with a range of independent shops, cafés, pubs, and a Sainsbury’s Local. The leisure centre has a gym, tennis courts, and offers various classes. The Downs Link cycle and walking trail passes through the village, and The Cabin at Berretts Farm is a popular stop for tea, coffee, and cakes.
Regular bus services link Henfield with Brighton, Horsham, and Burgess Hill. The A23 and Gatwick are easily accessible by road, and nearby Hassocks station (around 15 minutes by car) offers Thameslink and Southern services to London, Brighton, and the south coast.
