A wonderful old house hidden away on a 0.4 acre plot at the end of a short private cul-de-sac off New England Road. The house and land has been owned by the Hilton family since the 1930s who would have once owned much of the land on this side of town. It is unknown the exact age of the house but it is thought to possibly date from the mid 1800s and was extended by the Hiltons in 1957. WC Hilton was a well respected local builder who was part of the extended family of George Hilton whose department store in the centre of Haywards Heath was one of the mainstays of shopping in the area. His building company built properties in and around Haywards Heath, including many of those designed by renowned local architect, Harold Turner. The parade of shops and houses on the land known as “America” were also built by Hiltons after the Second World War. The house with its beautiful and mature gardens offers a high degree of privacy. The house does now require general updating throughout and offers tremendous potential for extending and/or the possibility of building further houses within the grounds.
