Full description

St. Leonards Park House is an imposing grade II listed Georgian country house which was, in 1999, redeveloped to incorporate individual properties in what was once the main house and separate cottages in the former stable block and lodge.

This three bedroom wing of the main house was the original entrance and that grandeur is evident throughout with a wealth of original features including high ceilings, stain glass and wooden shutters with sympathetic additions including fireplaces and oak flooring.

The accommodation features a spacious, light and airy, double aspect drawing room with views to both the shared grounds and private garden. There is also a fully fitted kitchen which is open to the separate, double aspect dining room; ideal for entertaining your weekend guests.

To the first floor are two double bedrooms. The current owners use bedroom 2 as the Master bedroom, preferring the stunning views from this room. A range of built in furniture cleverly utilises the available space to great effect, providing ample storage for the most comprehensive of wardrobes. Weekend guests benefit from an en-suite double bedroom, again with pleasing views across surrounding countryside.

Across the landing is a family bathroom with roll top bath sympathetic to the character and period of this home.

Further accommodation can be found on the second floor. This additional bedroom has further, far reaching views concealed walk-in wardrobe as well as an en-suite shower room.

Externally, there is access to the cellar offering a large amount of storage space, albeit, with slightly restricted headroom.

One of the unique features of this property, setting it apart from its neighbours is the private, walled garden with lawn, well stocked borders and terrace ideal for relaxing, alfresco dining.

At the end of the private, tree-lined drive leading to the property are allocated, covered parking spaces as well as spaces for visitors and a gated paddock for the use of all the residents.

It is easy to forget that you are so close to Horsham town centre when you are walking in the four acres of well maintained grounds, enjoying the peace and quiet and uninterrupted views across open farmland.

Agent note - Ground service charges approx £3,037.00 per annum

Why live in Horsham?

1 of 5

Horsham strikes the perfect balance with its community facilities and green spaces. There’s a market square at The Carfax complete with traditional bandstand, an abundance of shops, a cinema, theatre, leisure centre and a 60-acre park right in the centre of town.

We have an impressive mix of older properties, including historic buildings from the 1400s and 1500s with later additions from the Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian eras and some stunning artistic properties. Head out along The Causeway and you’ll see every style, from 15th century homes to new builds, on one superb road.

Horsham has many great schools, both state and private, junior and senior. Millais, Tanbridge House, Farlington, Windlesham House, St Marys, Bohunt and Heron Way all have excellent Ofsted ratings and have received equally positive reviews from pupils and parents. There’s a good range of shopping here too, including high street favourites and independent stores and coffee shops. You’ll also find a huge selection of eateries, bars, cafés and pubs in the town and a particularly high density of restaurants along East Street that has given rise to its nickname, ‘Eat Street’.

We have a great tradition of sports in Horsham and, more importantly, of supporting our local teams. Our town is the proud host of Sussex Cricket Club, which frequently plays on the Horsham Cricket Club grounds while the local cricket, football and rugby teams also attract great crowds on match days. If you like walking in beautiful countryside you’ll be spoilt for choice in Horsham while the Southwater Country Park has a Dinosaur Island play area for young families and kayaking and canoeing facilities for older children. The Pavilions in the Park leisure centre has indoor and outdoor heated pools and an aerial adventure course with ropes and a climbing wall. For more cultural pursuits, the Capitol Theatre and Cinema on North Street has a busy calendar of both theatrical productions and the latest movies.
