50 Wivelsfield Road, also known as 'Wellingtons', is an attractive and very well-presented detached family home, dating from 1930 and characterised by part rendered and part tile hung brick elevations, under a tiled roof. The versatile and well-proportioned accommodation is arranged over two floors (excluding the cellar) and is ideally suited to family life, with points of note including neutral décor throughout, light and bright rooms (many having a dual aspect), high ceilings, working and feature fireplaces, and a wealth of bespoke joinery.

The front door opens from under a large oak-framed open porch to the entrance lobby, which has a built-in store cupboard and coats hanging. The lobby opens to a spacious and versatile office, with oak floor and adjoining utility cupboard; beyond the office is the inner hall, off which lies a cloakroom with WC and from where there is under-stair access to steps descending to the cellar.

There are two elegant dual-aspect formal reception rooms with large square bay windows: the sitting room is at the front of the house and has a limestone fireplace set with a Stovax woodburner; the dining room features a cast iron feature fireplace and overlooks the garden.

The kitchen and breakfast room is of particular note, a modern addition to the property extending across the back of the house and overlooking the terrace and garden. It is well-fitted with a good range of hand-built oak cabinetry with pippy oak panels, a large central island with breakfast bar, and granite worktops. Integrated appliances include Neff double ovens and a pan-warming drawer, microwave and induction hob, and a Fisher & Paykel dishwasher; there is space and plumbing for a larder-style fridge/freezer.

There are four good-sized bedrooms on the first floor. The triple-aspect principal bedroom lies at the rear of the house, and has a walk-in dressing room with fitted storage, together with an en suite shower room. The three other bedrooms, two of which have built-in cupboards, share a modern family bathroom.

Outside
Wellingtons is set well back from Wivelsfield Road, screened by tall, mixed hedging. There is a large block-paved driveway offering ample parking for several cars, leading to the detached double garage, which has twin up and over doors (one electronically-operated), workshop space and a boarded first-floor storage room over. To the north of the house is a pathway leading to a metal storage shed, with outside power points and a water tap.

There is gated access between the house and the garage to a rear garden, an attractively landscaped and private space, well-enclosed by mature hedging and fencing, with flower and shrub borders, and young trees including bay and fig. A large paved terrace spans the rear of the house, offering space for a table and chairs, creating a wonderful space to enjoy eating and entertaining outdoors. Steps descend to the lawn, which features an elegant sandstone water feature as a central focal-point.
