Comptons Lane, Horsham, RH13

This is more than just a house, it’s a canvas for family life, with space to grow, entertain, and make memories. Set on one of Horsham’s most desirable roads, it offers both immediate comfort and exciting potential, ready for its next owners to shape into their forever home.

Set back behind a gated gravel driveway and framed by mature trees, this substantial detached home on Comptons Lane offers over 3,200 sq ft of versatile living space, with the rare advantage of being chain free.

Built in the 1970s, it combines generous proportions with scope for further improvement or extension, making it a truly exciting opportunity for an established family looking to put down roots in one of Horsham’s most desirable locations.

Inside, a welcoming galleried hallway sets the tone as a grand family residence. The large double aspect lounge, with its Sussex stone fireplace and wood burner, is the perfect family hub, while the formal dining room flows through to a cosy sun room overlooking the garden.

The kitchen/breakfast room, also enjoying garden views, is supported by a separate utility and an integrated double garage with electric door. A convenient cloakroom/WC sits just off the entrance lobby, perfectly placed for guests.

From the light-filled galleried landing, five generous double bedrooms flow with ease. The principal suite is particularly impressive - a vast retreat with four built-in wardrobes, a seating area, and a large en suite complete with spa bath and separate shower. Two further bedrooms are fitted with sinks, ideal for busy family life, while a well-proportioned family bathroom serves the remaining rooms.

At the very top of the house lies a true showstopper. This vast floor is currently arranged as a family entertainment haven, with distinct zones for a cinema set-up, music, gaming, and a quiet reading nook - all within one expansive space. It’s a floor designed for fun and flexibility, but it could just as easily serve as a spectacular principal suite or guest suite. Alongside this open area is a separate study, ideal for home working, and excellent eaves storage that makes practical use of the roof space.

Outside, the home sits on a quarter-acre plot. The rear garden is beautifully maintained, mature and east-facing, with a wide lawn and a patio for entertaining. The colourful and well-established shrubs and trees are a magnet for local birdlife and butterflies. Several sheds and summerhouses provide excellent storage, or could be converted to create a work-from-home haven in the peaceful garden.

To the front, there is an attractive gravel driveway, with a lawned area that feels very private and tucked away. The front gardens are cleverly planted to bloom in different colours throughout the year, and several established trees including a lovely cherry tree offer shade and privacy.

The location is second to none - within walking distance of Horsham station, Forest and Millais schools, and a handy parade of shops, while beautiful woodland walks at Owlbeech and St Leonard’s Forest are on your doorstep. The A24, A264 and M23 are all easily accessible for road links to London, Gatwick Airport and beyond.

To help buyers imagine the next chapter for this property, an architect has prepared visualisations showing how the house could be extended and reconfigured. Please view the video to explore these ideas further.
