REF RM1298

Kilnwood Vale has established itself as one of West Sussex's most desirable modern addresses, and this apartment at Capon Park represents it at its best. Built by Linden Homes in 2021, this dual aspect first-floor apartment faces east and west, and has been presented and styled to a standard that makes it stand apart from comparable resale apartments in the development.

The open-plan kitchen, living and dining room runs to just under 18 feet wide and is the heart of the home. Sage green walls, Karndean flooring and a beautiful outlook, give the room a settled, considered feel. The kitchen is fully integrated — fridge/freezer, upgraded washer/dryer, full size dishwasher, gas hob, oven and extractor — fitted with grey gloss units, a metro tile splashback and open shelving above the worktop. French doors open onto a Juliette balcony with a view over the landscaped green space below, which is set some distance from neighbouring buildings to provide privacy. The bright and spacious entrance hallway has two large shelved storage cupboards, with a third in the living room, which is more practical storage than most apartments of this size manage.

The principal bedroom has been styled to a level that takes real effort to achieve. Warm taupe panelled walls, chandelier ceiling light and hotel-quality presentation make it a room that photographs well and lives better. The elegant en-suite is well-appointed with a shower enclosure, illuminated mirror cabinet and white suite. The main bathroom is where the owners have genuinely made their mark: charcoal limewash walls, a large round backlit mirror, a bath with an overhead black rain shower and black fittings throughout. It is a long way from the standard developer bathroom. The second bedroom completes the picture — a generous double with two large windows, framing the distant woodlands, the space on offer can comfortably combine a guest bedroom with a home office in addition to large freestanding wardrobes.

Two allocated parking spaces are included, alongside ample visitor parking and a secure bike store.

On the tenure side, the lease was originally granted for 999 years with over 992 remaining and no ground rent to pay — as close to freehold security as leasehold gets. The remainder of the Premier 10-year new build guarantee also transfers with the sale. These are reassurances that not every resale apartment in the development can still offer. Kilnwood Vale Primary School & Nursery are within a moments walk. Looking ahead, a neighbourhood centre is due to commence development shortly, bringing a convenience store, retail units, a food-based pub and a community centre to the doorstep.

Faygate & Ifield stations are close by with services connecting to Three Bridges and direct trains running into Central London. The M23 puts Gatwick Airport within easy reach, particularly with the 24-hour bus service as well as Manor Royal — one of the South East's largest business districts — which is a short drive away, making this a practical base for those who work locally as well as those commuting further afield. Horsham and Crawley town centres are both within easy distance, and Buchan Country Park is nearby for those who want open space and woodland walks beyond the development itself. Whether you are buying for the first time, scaling down, investing, or simply looking for a well specified home in a growing community, this apartment is worth taking seriously.
