A unique opportunity to acquire a landmark Grade II Listed period building in the heart of the High Street believed to date back to circa 1630. This fine property requires refurbishment and has planning permission for full residential use with the option of keeping the former shop unit to the front if required. The accommodation is laid over three floors and retains many character features including a period fireplace and many exposed wall and ceiling timbers. Formaly known as The Gate House this historic property previously featured a gate across the High Street, where a toll was paid for access and was removed in 1864. Once converted it would provide 4 bedrooms, 3 reception rooms, have a useful cellar and a courtyard walled garden.
Pleasantly located in this picturesque and historic High Street with all the local shops and amenities on the door step to include a variety of traditional shops, supermarket, Post Office, restaurants and public houses. The village provides a medical centre and well regarded schools catering for all age ranges. The nearby town of Haywards Heath is about 1.5 miles away and provides further shopping facilities and the main line station with good commuter links to London (47 minutes).
