About
Set within a small and exclusive gated development on the rural eastern outskirts of Haywards Heath, 7 Oldfield Drive is an impressive five-bedroom detached family home occupying a particularly generous plot.
Built by Cala Homes in 2016, Oldfield Drive comprises just eight substantial detached houses, creating a private and peaceful setting within a Conservation Area. No.
7 is one of the largest properties within the development and occupies, we believe, one of the most generous plots.
The house offers exceptionally well-balanced accommodation, with five bedrooms, four bathrooms and four separate reception rooms, providing an excellent degree of flexibility for modern family life.
Three of the bedrooms benefit from en suite facilities, while a separate utility room adds further practicality.
At the heart of the home is an impressive kitchen / breakfast room, creating a wonderful space for family gatherings and entertaining, while the four reception rooms provide plenty of flexibility for formal entertaining, relaxation, home working or children's play.
Outside Outside, the property is approached via a private driveway providing parking, with attractive front and side gardens.
To the rear is a substantial L-shaped garden, which is a particular feature of the property.
