Bay Pond Cottage is a pretty and distinctive weather boarded detached period cottage set in the Conservation Area with a lovely outlook to the front over the village pond. Local historians date the property back to circa 1830, which has been extended with a two storey addition to the rear and has had a new slate tiled roof in recent years. The property now requires extensive updating and modernisation but recently was granted planning permission (DM/22/3459) to extend the cottage with a 2 storey extension to provide 3 bedrooms and a larger kitchen/dining room. There is unrestricted parking outside the cottage and in nearby car parks. The attractive rear garden is a feature, offers good privacy and seclusion and features a detached timber summerhouse/store which could provide a useful home office if required.

Pleasantly situated in this sought after location at the southerly end of the High Street, close to the common and within a short stroll to the many interesting shops and amenities the village offers including a supermarket, Post Office, coffee shops, restaurants and a choice of pubs. Local amenities also include the village hall, medical centre and several churches. The main town of Haywards Heath is just over a mile away and provides further shopping facilities and the main line railway station.
