Cragside is a substantial detached family house with a self-contained two storey annexe set in lovely mature gardens extending to about half an acre enjoying a favoured south westerly aspect. The property offers exceptionally spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors in need of updating and redecoration which could easily be remodelled to create a large five bedroom family home if desired. The property has the benefit of double glazed replacement windows, the main house has oil central heating and the annexe has gas central heating although they share the same electric supply. There is a double garage approached by a wide block paved drive offering parking for 4 vehicles and a particular feature of the house is the delightful mature gardens arranged mainly as lawns planted with an abundance of mature trees and shrubs and incorporates a swimming pool and a large kitchen garden to the far end.
Wythwood is a small cul-de-sac lying immediately off Rookery Way in this much favoured established location on the south side of town within a short walking distance of a Sainsbury's Local and the Princess Royal Hospital. The town centre is within easy reach offering a wide range of shops including The Broadway with its array of restaurants, there are several well regarded schools and colleges in the area catering for all age groups whilst the mainline railway station is close at hand providing a fast and frequent service to central London (Victoria/London Bridge 42-45 minutes). The A23 lies 5.8 miles to the west via the recently opened bypass, Gatwick Airport is 14.7 miles to the north and the cosmopolitan city of Brighton and the coast is 13.5 miles to the south whilst the South Downs National Park and Ashdown Forest are both within a short drive offering beautiful natural venues for countryside walking.
