About this property

  • Built in 1937, 37 Wickham Way is an attractive period home located in a sought-after private road on the northern side of Haywards Heath, only nine minutes' walk from the mainline station and its elevated position affording some lovely views over the townscape. The house has remained in the same family for nearly 90 years and is on the market for the first time, and although in need of comprehensive renovation offers a new owner enormous scope to refurbish and/or extend (subject to the necessary consents).

    The accommodation is arranged over two floors and extends to about 1,290 square feet, the full extent and layout of which can be seen on the floor plan.

    Outside, the property is accessed via a gated pathway which leads across the front garden to the front door. There is gated access at the side of the house to the rear garden, which is mainly laid to lawn and well-enclosed by mature shrubs, rhododendron and hedging. A bank of mature shrubs and apple trees in the centre of the garden screens an overgrown former kitchen garden beyond.
