This unique detached home was formed from two 200-year-old cottages and retains strong period character throughout, with exposed beams, attractive stone walls and two inglenook-style fireplaces. Adapted and extended by the long-term owner, the interior offers versatile reception space including a sitting room, dining room, study and conservatory, plus a principal suite with walk-in wardrobe and en suite shower room.
Outside, the property sits in extensive mature gardens with a paved terrace, greenhouse, vegetable plot and a 1.2-acre paddock that delivers far-reaching open countryside views. Practical features include a detached double garage, adjoining carport, timber sheds and substantial driveway parking accessed via gated entrances — useful for families with several cars or trailers.
From a running-cost and improvement perspective, the house is heated by an oil-fired boiler and uses propane for cooking; the EPC is rated E. The property’s solid brick construction suggests limited wall insulation as built, so energy-efficiency upgrades (insulation, heating improvements, double-glazing checks) should be considered. Broadband speeds are slow in the area and council tax is described as quite expensive.
Located about three miles south of Horsham town centre and station, this home provides a peaceful village setting with good local schools and easy access to A24/A281 links, yet remains practical for commuting or family life. The plot and layout offer clear scope for sympathetic modernisation to improve comfort and efficiency without losing the house’s historic charm.
