11 Dukes Road is a handsome detached home, situated in a tucked away location, part of an enclave of six properties on one of Lindfield's most desirable roads. The property dates from the 1950s, and has been subsequently extended over time, most recently by the current owners who undertook a comprehensive programme of improvements, including a substantial two-storey side extension, full re-plumb and re-wire, and significantly enlarging the porch; additionally, the outside space has been beautifully landscaped. The structural work and decor to the ground floor and most bedrooms is complete; the first-floor bathrooms have plumbing in situ but require fitting out, offering an excellent opportunity for the purchaser to install fittings to suit their own taste and budget.

The gabled oak porch shelters a solid oak front door and is a striking entry to the house; it opens to a spacious entrance hall with wood flooring and built-in shoe storage. To the left is a study, and to the right is a triple aspect sitting room, with built in media shelving and fitted 7.2 surround sound; it has a deep bay with a door to the sun terrace. It is open to the kitchen/dining/family room. There is underfloor heating to the tiled floor, and an excellent flow to outside, with French doors and bi-fold doors. The stylish contemporary kitchen has a good range of sleek cabinets with composite stone worktops and a breakfast bar; appliances include an AEG induction hob with extractor over, two AEG ovens and an integrated dishwasher.

Beyond the kitchen is a rear lobby giving access to the ground floor shower room and garage/store.

The oak staircase has a glass balustrade, and roof light set above it, ensuring light floods throughout the centre of the house. The roof light can be opened for temperature control in the summer months. There are five well-proportioned bedrooms arranged around the landing. The principal suite has fitted wardrobes, and an en suite with a WC fitted and plumbing for a shower and a basin. There is a further guest room with dressing room, which has potential to create an en suite with most plumbing in place. There is also potential to create a large family bathroom, currently fitted with a basin, heated rail and a WC and plumbing for a bath and separate shower.

Outside
11 Dukes Road sits on a large corner plot which extends to just under a third of an acre. The property is approached via a wide shingled driveway, offering parking for several vehicles ahead of the attached double garage and the house; to one side is a lawn.

A York stone path leads around the side of the house, past a garden shed which is on a raft footing offering potential to add a substantial garden room or annexe (STPP); the path opens out to a large terrace which adjoins the house to the side and rear; it has power connected and offers a great space for entertaining, and is partially split level, with provision to add low level lighting to the steps and beautiful red brick raised beds. The remainder of the garden is laid to lawn, with mature trees creating an effective screen at the boundary.

In all about 0.29 of an acre.
