4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Worthing Road, Horsham, West Sussex RH12

A handsome four bedroom semi-detached house located on one of Horsham’s most sought after roads, just a few minutes walk from the town centre. Brimming with 1930’s charm, you enter the home through an arched storm porch and are welcomed into a large entrance hall which leads to two reception rooms with back-to-back fireplaces, a downstairs cloakroom, and an open plan kitchen/dining room which leads to a useful utility room, and then on to the integral garage. On the first floor the spacious principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes, and an attractive bay window. A second shower suite is also adjacent to the principal bedroom and could easily be reconfigured to create an ensuite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms, a large single bedroom and the family bathroom which complete the first floor accommodation. From the landing, a loft hatch accesses the cavernous loft space, which has the potential to convert (s.t.p.p). The current owner has had extensive plans drawn up to extend and reconfigure the accommodation, which we can share with any interested parties. Outside, there is a large front garden, and the rear garden enjoys a good degree of privacy. Offered to the market with no onward chain.
