A beautiful Victorian home where period elegance meets contemporary family living, this impressive property on Hurst Road offers generous accommodation, exceptional character and a superb location close to the very best of central Horsham and just moments from Horsham’s mainline station.

Behind an attractive wrought iron gate, the property immediately makes an impression, with its handsome proportions, classic Victorian detailing and welcoming approach. A pathway leads to the front door, where the sense of quality and attention to detail continues throughout.

Inside, the entrance hall provides access to a wonderful lounge and dining space, rich in period charm with a feature fireplace, attractive bay window and beautifully preserved plaster cornicing. To the rear, the house has been substantially extended to create an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family room. With part-vaulted ceilings with velux windows offering excellent natural light, this is a fantastic space for everyday family life as well as entertaining, while bi-fold doors create a seamless connection with the garden and make summer dining and evening gatherings particularly appealing. A useful side lobby and stylish contemporary shower room complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the character continues, with a traditional staircase featuring painted bannisters and carpeted stair runners leading to the first floor. Here you will find three double bedrooms, together with a well-appointed family bathroom and a particularly useful adjoining store room. The latter also offers exciting potential to enlarge the bathroom further, should the new owner wish to do so. The principal bedroom is a particularly attractive room, featuring a bay window, an additional front-facing window and a beautiful decorative cast-iron fireplace which provides a wonderful focal point.

A further staircase continues to the top floor, where two additional double bedrooms provide excellent flexibility for family, guests, home working or hobbies.

Outside, the rear garden is a real highlight. Enclosed by attractive Victorian-style walls, it has been thoughtfully landscaped to provide a combination of newly installed decking, lawn and winding pathways, with established flowerbeds adding colour and interest. Side access is also a particularly useful feature. For those needing to park, there is on-street parking available, with residents' permits available from Horsham District Council.

The location is equally impressive. Hurst Road provides excellent access to Horsham's mainline railway station and the historic town centre, making it an ideal choice for commuters and those wanting to enjoy everything Horsham has to offer without relying on the car. The town centre provides an excellent mix of familiar high-street names, independent retailers, cafés, pubs and restaurants, while the Carfax comes alive each Saturday with its popular market and, on occasions, live music around the historic bandstand. Across the road, Horsham Park provides a wonderful open space for recreation, with The Pavilions Gym also close at hand, while The Capitol theatre and cinema on North Street are just a pleasant stroll away.

Combining substantial and beautifully presented accommodation with impressive period features, a superb contemporary extension and one of Horsham's most convenient town-centre locations, this is a truly special Victorian home. An internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the space, character and quality this exceptional property has to offer.
