Description

River Cottage comprises an attractive detached single storey home backing directly on to the River Arun just a short walk off Horsham's Causeway and the town. Built in 1964, the original property has been creatively enlarged over the years and now offers up-sizers or downsizers an amazing opportunity. The accommodation briefly comprises a large and bright entrance hall, a living room open to a triple aspect dining room, fabulous fitted kitchen with vaulted breakfast area, separate laundry room and cloaks shower room. There is a large principal bedroom suite with doors out to a raised deck and an en-suite bath/shower room and there are two further bedrooms. There would of course be scope for going upwards to create further accommodation but this would be subject to the necessary consents and approvals being obtainable. Outside, the beautifully landscaped gardens start at the front, set off by the resin stone driveway and pathway which leads around to the side and the rear garden which is completely private has been well loved over many years and offers plenty of interest. The final delight is the direct access to the River Arun at the rear most part. There is also a generous oversized garage and extensive parking and viewings are strongly recommended with the vendors sole agents, Courtney Green.

The path itself cuts through areas of garden, one laid to lawn with flower and shrub borders, the other with gravel and shrubs, a central box hedge feature and there are numerous evergreens on the boundary, side access gate with greenhouse adjacent and leading to the rear garden.

South Facing Rear Garden The rear garden is an absolute delight and it’s hard to believe you are so close to the town. Predominantly laid to lawn, the garden enjoys an enormous degree of privacy and there are large flower beds and numerous interesting areas of planting. A brick edged Indian sandstone pathway leads to steps which rise up to a terrace with balustrade and also with further steps leading down to the lawn and there is an additional rear paved area leading to the raised deck adjacent to the principal bedroom. There are attractive stone edged planting areas, a further timber shed, lovely rhododendrons and other interesting specimens and then finally at the rear most part there is a further metal shed and a gate which leads to a lovely hidden away naturalistic river bank with the river running through. The whole garden benefits from the seclusion that the margin of the river provides and really needs to be seen to be appreciated.

About Courtney Green, Horsham

25 Carfax, Horsham, RH12 1EE
Industry affiliations:

WE GIVE MORE! Celebrating nearly 36 years of Giving More in Horsham!

Courtney Green was established by Nick Courtney and Steven Greenfield in 1988. We offer our clients a wide range of services including Estate Agency, Property Lettings and Residential Management.

For total peace of mind we are members of the Property Ombudsman scheme, The National Association of Estate Agents, The Association of Residential Letting Agents (ARLA), The National Approved Letting Scheme (NALS) and The Association of Managing Agents (ARMA) and abide by their respective rules and codes of conduct.

By employing the most experienced staff possible we are able to deliver our clients a service experience beyond expectation and we offer understanding and genuine interest in their individual needs and requirements.

Residential Sales

The Residential Sales department is headed up by Co-Founder and Joint Managing Director Steven Greenfield. The Sales Team consists of Andrew Bowling MNAEA (Residential Sales Manager) who has over forty years experience in the local housing market in a senior role, alongside Cameron Shall MNAEA (Senior Negotiator/Valuer) and Daniel Sampford and Rachel Shadbolt our Negotiators, ably supported by our excellent Branch Secretary and genuine "all rounder" Ruth Scheller MNAEA , and our long-term assistants, Julia Cripps, Wendy Sikora and Colin Seal who each bring their experience and enthusiasm to the team.

When prospective sellers first approach Courtney Green we offer a "no obligation" appointment for one of our experienced valuers to visit their property to discuss the value which would be based on comparable evidence of similar homes that have sold in the vicinity. We will also provide marketing advice and details of our fees and terms of business.

Unlike many estate agents, Courtney Green does not ask its clients to enter into a contract that ties the seller in for a given period, which can sometimes be more than 16 weeks! We have no minimum period whatsoever.

Due to advances in technology, we are now able to produce high quality, full colour sales particulars, specifically designed to show the property in the best light possible but not to the point where the details actually look better than the house! Our aim is to present every property honestly and as they say: "It's the details that count and you never get a second chance to make a first impression."

Residential Lettings and Management

Our established Lettings Department is run by our Lettings DirectorJonathan Evans MARLA along with Lettings Manager Robert Knapp supported by Freddie Wilson (Senior Lettings Negotiator), Bradley Smith (Senior Property Manager), Karen Lynn (Property Compliance Manager) and Lucy Strudwick (Senior Property Manager), with an experienced administration team consisting of Natasha Price (Lettings Account Manager) and Mandy Hallet (Renewals and Home Service Co-Ordinator).

The lettings team has many years of experience in Letting and Property Management and looks after over 850 properties in and around the Horsham area. We deal in all varieties of property from town centre studio flats to rural country houses and cottages, all Landlords have the benefit of dealing with a company who are a fully bonded member of the National Association of Estate Agents (NAEA), the Association of Residential Letting Agents (ARLA) and the National Approved Letting Scheme (NALS).
