Full description

An exceptional executive residence set within approximately 0.6 of an acre, enjoying a peaceful semi-rural setting on the fringes of Warnham village. Backing directly onto open countryside, the property offers a rare combination of privacy, space and accessibility, with Horsham town centre, highly regarded schools and direct commuter routes to London, Gatwick and Brighton all within easy reach.

Extending to approximately 2,954 sq ft, this impressive home delivers beautifully balanced accommodation across two floors, thoughtfully arranged for modern family living and entertaining. The property is offered with vacant possession and no onward chain.

A generous reception hall sets an immediate tone of space and light, leading through to a striking 19’ x 19’ family room. With double doors opening onto the rear terrace and this superb room is bathed in natural light and enjoys uninterrupted views across the adjoining countryside — an ideal setting for both relaxed family time and entertaining guests.

The formal living room provides a more intimate retreat, centred around an exposed brick fireplace with inset log burner, creating warmth and character with French windows on to a west facing terrace. A separate dining room offers an elegant space for formal occasions, while the well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room overlooks the gardens and serves as the heart of the home. Practical additions include a walk-through boot room, utility room and a dedicated study, perfectly suited to today’s work-from-home requirements.

The turning staircase rises to a spacious first-floor landing, leading to a luxurious principal suite occupying its own private wing. Dual aspect windows frame delightful garden and countryside views, while a comprehensive range of fitted wardrobes and a well-appointed en suite bathroom — complete with walk-in shower, separate bath, WC and wash basin — provide both comfort and convenience.

A guest bedroom suite with its own en suite bathroom is positioned at the opposite end of the house, ensuring excellent privacy for visitors. Two further generous double bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom complete the first-floor accommodation.

The approach is suitably impressive, via electrically operated gates opening onto a sweeping gravel driveway with ample parking for multiple vehicles. The double garage, with up-and-over doors and integral access, offers substantial loft space above and presents exciting potential for conversion. Permission has been granted for conversion of garage loft to form habitable space with addition of 2 x dormer windows to the front elevation and 3 x rooflights to the rear. (Horsham District Council planning Reference DC/23/0623)

The gardens and grounds are a particular feature, extending to circa 0.6 of an acre and backing onto open countryside. Expanses of lawn, paved terraces ideal for al fresco dining, a wooded area and a substantial garden pond combine to create a wonderfully private and picturesque outdoor setting.

Situation

South Lodge is situated in a rural setting between the villages of Warnham and Broadbridge Heath. Warnham has a village hall and two local pubs, while Broadbridge Heath offers various amenities, including its own post office, local convenience store and public house; as well its own leisure centre and, just a short distance away, a retail park and large supermarket. Approximately three miles distance is the historic market town of Horsham, which offers a more comprehensive range of facilities including a John Lewis at Home, Swan Walk shopping centre, The Carfax, with its cobbled streets and varied Restaurant quarter; Horsham park and a mainline train station (London Victoria and London Bridge both approximately 55 minutes).

The A24 is close by giving access to the M23 and wider motorway network, London, Gatwick and Heathrow airports; and the south coast. There are also several excellent state and private schools in the area.

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 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.
