Situated in the very heart of Uckfield, just a short stroll from the bustling town centre and mainline train station offering direct services to London, this stunning three-bedroom link detached family home is the epitome of modern comfort and understated luxury. Beautifully maintained and significantly upgraded by the current owners, the property now presents a perfect balance of practical family living and contemporary style. With impressive eco credentials, high-spec fixtures and fittings throughout, and a thoughtfully extended ground floor, this is a home ready to enjoy from the very first day.
From the outside, the property exudes kerb appeal. The smart brick-paved driveway provides off-road parking and leads to an electric up-and-over garage door offering access to a useful storage area – ideal for bikes, tools or even a compact home gym. Stepping through the front door, the attention to detail is immediately evident. The hallway leads into a bright, spacious formal living room to the front of the house, where a sleek electric fire creates a cosy focal point – the perfect spot to unwind in comfort.
The real showstopper of this home, however, lies to the rear, where a spectacular open-plan kitchen and family room has been added, seamlessly connecting the interior with the beautifully landscaped south-facing garden through a full-width set of bi-folding doors. This generous and stylish space offers a natural hub for daily life, entertaining, or simply relaxing with views out to the private garden beyond. The extension has been finished to a high standard, with underfloor heating (electric), air conditioning (heating and cooling), and Velux electric opening roof windows complete with electric blackout blinds to ensure light, airflow and comfort all year round.
The kitchen itself is superbly appointed, fitted with a range of sleek units and integrated appliances including a Bosch combi microwave oven (installed approximately 18 months ago), a NEFF oven, a high-output NEFF induction hob, built-in fridge freezer, and dishwasher. The elegant one-and-a-half bowl Franke inset sink is served by a 4-way boiling water tap providing 100°C water and filtered cold water – a truly luxurious touch. A separate utility room offers space and plumbing for a washing machine and condenser dryer and connects to the garage, allowing functional day-to-day living to flow effortlessly.
Upstairs, the quality continues. There are three well-proportioned bedrooms, all freshly decorated and bright. The master bedroom is a true retreat, having been extended over the garage to include a superb dressing area complete with a range of built-in wardrobes. It also benefits from air conditioning and a stylish en-suite shower room, fitted with a modern walk-in shower featuring a powerful Equalise Quartz thermostatic power shower (installed approx. two years ago), chrome towel rail with dual electric and winter heating, and elegant tiling. The family bathroom is equally impressive, with a panelled bath, walk-in shower cubicle, wash hand basin and W.C., all beautifully finished and served by a dual heat chrome towel rail – ideal for comfort in every season.
The home’s technical and environmental credentials are equally impressive. The entire electrical system was upgraded approximately 18 months ago, with a new consumer unit installed to the latest 18th edition standards. This includes surge protection and individual RCBO units, with all certificates in place and valid for 10 years. The heating system has been modernised with a condensing combi boiler installed two years ago, under full warranty with six years remaining. All radiators are fitted with Wiser wireless thermostatic valves for precise room-by-room control, while the towel rails in both the bathroom and en-suite benefit from dual thermostatic settings for summer and winter use.
In early 2024, the property saw the addition of a brand-new PV solar system featuring 17 panels and a 10kWh battery storage unit. With long-term warranties ranging from 10 to 25 years and the property currently on an export tariff, this forward-thinking feature makes a real contribution to both energy efficiency and reduced utility bills.
Externally, the south-facing garden is a joy – landscaped with low maintenance in mind and featuring a combination of attractive seating areas, tasteful planting, and clever design features to maximise both usability and privacy. Whether you prefer entertaining outdoors, reading in the sun, or simply enjoying a peaceful cuppa on a summer's day, the garden provides the ideal backdrop.
Other notable features include high-speed Vodafone Full Fibre 910Xtra broadband with superfast Wi-Fi, electric blackout blinds to all major windows, and a layout that supports both family life and futureproofed living.
Located within walking distance of shops, schools, restaurants, and local amenities, as well as being just a short drive from the prestigious East Sussex National Golf Club and Spa, and the scenic beauty of Ashdown Forest, this exceptional home offers both convenience and an enviable lifestyle.
Properties of this calibre, with such a comprehensive specification and in such a prime location, are rarely available. Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate all this home has to offer.
