Set on a substantial parcel of land in a sought-after rural lane, this detached single‑storey home occupies circa 2–4 acres with paddocks and equestrian potential. The current bungalow provides three double bedrooms (principal with new en‑suite), multiple reception rooms and a large fitted kitchen opening to a sunny patio with southerly/westerly aspects. The house is practical now for countryside living and benefits from off‑street parking and good separation from neighbours.
A significant value driver is the existing planning consent (Horsham DC DC/15/1744) to replace the bungalow with a new circa 3,000 sq ft dwelling and a three‑bay garage; the consent also allows a substantially larger family home sited further back within the plot. Alternatively, there is scope to extend the current property or add a second floor, offering flexibility for immediate occupation or redevelopment for an incoming buyer.
Buyers should note practical considerations: heating is oil‑fired with a boiler and radiators, broadband speeds are very slow, glazing dates from before 2002 and the EPC is E. The property dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s and will benefit from updating in places. The quiet, semi‑isolated location is ideal for equestrian use and outdoor pursuits, but it requires a buyer comfortable with rural services and longer journeys to shops and stations.
For a family seeking long‑term rural potential—or an investor/developer wanting a permitted, high‑value replacement dwelling—this site combines immediate liveability with strong redevelopment upside in an affluent, low‑crime area with good local schools and extensive bridleway access.
