The White House
The dream: A country house
dating from the 1950s has been
lavishly refurbished throughout in
contemporary style, so it looks as
though it has just been built. The
roof is new and all the windows
have been replaced with fashionable
sleek black frames and double
glazing and it has sparkling new
bathrooms. The kitchen/dining/
family area is sensational, running
from front to back of the house
with a ceiling lantern and full-length
windows with doors at both ends.
Where: On the edge of the village of
Wivelsfield Green, equidistant between
Burgess Hill and Haywards Heath.
Setting: An elevated position
in a rural, agricultural setting,
within its own grounds.
Beds: 6 Baths: 4
Special features: Outstanding
views of the South Downs.
Pleasing details: The Master
Suite has a vaulted, split-level
bedroom, a bathroom, a dressing
room, a seating area and French
windows onto a large balcony.
Outside: 5.1 acres of land, with
lawns, parkland, magnificent
trees and a smart tennis court,
terraces and entertaining areas.
Time to town: From Haywards
Heath to Victoria in under an hour.
