Property description

*** SITUATED IN AN AREA OF OUTSTANDING NATURAL BEAUTY ***

Situated in an area of outstanding natural beauty, set back from a country lane, this delightful single storey home affords easy access to the local village of Colgate, with Horsham and Crawley town centres both within approximately 5 miles. With easy access to the M23 (5 minutes drive), road and rail links provide fast access to London, Brighton and Gatwick Airport.

This family home is well positioned within grounds extending to approximately 2 acres, with fantastic countryside views from all aspects. The approach to the property is via an electrically operated gate, down a long private driveway leading to a gravelled parking area.

Internally from the hallway, glazed double doors open to the drawing room which has a spectacular vaulted ceiling and beam work, two bay windows to the front and French doors opening to the rear gardens, the brick fireplace forms a real focal point within the room.

The kitchen features hand-made oak fitted cabinetry with a cooking range and a lovely central island. In-keeping with the 'country feel' surrounding the property. There are views of the rear garden with further access from a separate utility room.

The bedrooms consist of a master suite with fitted wardrobes, a walk through dressing area and an en-suite bathroom with bath, separate shower cubicle and twin basins.
The second bedroom is triple aspect with French doors, and a door directly to the family bathroom. There are two further bedrooms, one with built in wardrobes and a separate cloakroom.

The detached annex has an entrance room, kitchen, cloakroom, and a main living or studio area. This really is a fantastic and spacious addition to the property and could be used as a separate office, games/party room, or additional reception space for guests or teenagers.

The formal gardens to the rear showcase the delightful setting with a raised patio area across the width of the property and steps to the lawns and the double-layered pond with connecting rockery. The paddock forms the back boundary with post and rail fencing and hard standing for two loosebox stables. The boundary with the open farmland is fringed with mature oaks, which stretch down to the woodland beyond. To the front of the property is the attached double garage with boarded eaves storage. Footpaths and bridleways give immediate access to the beautiful Sussex countryside and all that St Leonards Forest has to offer.


Early viewing is recommended. Available Long term.
