We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

This beautifully presented 3-BEDROOM, SEMI-DETACHED 1920s COTTAGE has been thoughtfully reconfigured, modernised and further improved by the current owners combining contemporary living with original character and charm.
Occupying a generous corner plot, the property offers EXCELLENT POTENTIAL FOR A SIDE EXTENSION (STPP).
Positioned on the sought-after north-western edge of Cuckfield, it is within easy walking distance of amenities at Whitemans Green, well-regarded village schools and the picturesque High Street beyond, with a convenient bus stop close by.
The accommodation briefly comprises a welcoming RECEPTION HALL with two fitted understairs storage cupboards and a cosy LIVING ROOM to the front with an open fireplace.
To the rear, a beautifully appointed Shaker-style KITCHEN/DINING ROOM is finished in muted olive green cabinetry, complemented by black granite-effect composite worksurfaces and integrated appliances including a fridge/freezer and dishwasher.
A freestanding induction Rangemaster cooker sits beneath a Rangemaster extractor hood, while co-ordinating cabinetry continues into the DINING AREA, where a chimney breast recess provides an ideal space for a woodburner.
Patio doors open into a uPVC CONSERVATORY, with an adjoining UTILITY ROOM providing a secondary sink, space/plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, and useful storage area.
Further patio doors from the conservatory open to the rear garden. Stairs from the reception hall rise to the FIRST FLOOR LANDING.
BEDROOM ONE, positioned to the front, is a GENEROUS DOUBLE with a gabled dormer window typical of the 1920s.
BEDROOM TWO is a further double to the rear and houses the airing cupboard with hot-water cylinder and slatted shelving, while BEDROOM THREE is a LARGE SINGLE to the front.

Further benefits of the property include a replaced Worcester Bosch gas-fired boiler (2020), majority of radiators replaced and a re-fitted bath/shower room and separate WC (all by the current owners).
Additionally, uPVC double glazed windows and doors are fitted throughout. The property also enjoys a central village location within walking distance of highly regarded schools and nurseries.
OUTSIDE The FRONT GARDEN is laid to lawn and partly enclosed by established, neatly clipped hedging with shrub borders.
