House For Sale £2,350,000
Elegant modernised Victorian house near Rusper.
Description
Having been the subject of a major refurbishment and remodelling exercise in recent years, Old Park now represents a stunning period home with the benefits of a thorough modernisation programme throughout. We understand the original house dates from 1850 and the property is rendered with a hipped-slate roof. Today, the property is reminiscent of a house from the Georgian era with its distinct front elevation and portico, sash windows and noticeably generous ceiling heights.
The entrance portico leads to a generous open reception hall with a large study adjacent with its double doors onto the garden. Ahead is substantial family room of some 28 feet in length which in turn leads to a contemporary, double aspect kitchen, with an adjoining utility room, featuring Miele appliances with views across the garden and open farmland beyond. The ground floor accommodation is complimented by a fabulous 25 foot long drawing room with a marble fireplace and floor to ceiling, south-facing sash windows overlooking the garden. Access to a cellar is beneath the staircase which in itself rises to a generous landing on the first floor. There are five generous double bedrooms all with ensuite bathrooms. Of particular note is the superb principle suite which is of a significant scale and occupies the southerly view over the garden complete with a walk-in wardrobe.
Externally, the property is accessed via an electric timber gate to a gravelled drive that leads to a beautiful turning circle around a glorious, mature oak tree and to the front of the house. Beyond is an independent double garage. The grounds are mainly laid to lawn and lead beyond the perimeter to open farmland and far-reaching views. There is a hard tennis court neatly surrounded by laurel hedging as well as a charming vegetable garden immediately adjacent to the rear of the house.
Location
The property is located approximately 1 mile to the south of the delightful West Sussex village of Rusper and 3 miles to the north of Horsham town centre with its plentiful amenities, bars, restaurants and facilities. The immediate area surrounding the property is a combination of farmland and woodland with availability to A roads and the motorway network both north and south providing links to London and the south coast with Gatwick approximately 10 miles away.
There is a wide selection of schools in the area such as Cottesmore, Christs Hospital, Pennthorpe and Farlington. Sporting facilities include golf at Mannings Heath and the West Sussex Golf Club at Pulborough. All distances and journey times are approximate.
