North Heath Lane, Horsham, RH12

Flagstones is a substantial and highly versatile detached period home occupying a generous plot in a sought-after North Horsham location, with the rare additional benefit of full planning permission for the construction of a contemporary detached three-bedroom house within the grounds.

Combining character, flexibility and long-term potential, the property currently provides extensive family accommodation together with an established self-contained annexe, while also offering future owners the opportunity to create an additional dwelling with its own access, parking and private garden.

Situated on North Heath Lane, the property enjoys convenient access to Littlehaven mainline station, Horsham town centre, highly regarded local schools, nearby countryside and commuter routes to London, Gatwick and Brighton. The property retains considerable character and forms part of Horsham’s Local List as a building of local historic and architectural interest.

The existing house offers spacious and adaptable accommodation arranged over two floors. At its heart is a bright triple-aspect sitting room centred around a feature fireplace with log burner, complemented by additional reception rooms that provide flexibility for family living, home working or entertaining. The kitchen combines traditional character with practicality, featuring shaker-style cabinetry, quarry-tiled flooring, an Aga and direct access to the garden.

One wing of the ground floor is currently configured as a self-contained annexe, incorporating bedroom, bathroom, reception and full kitchen facilities. This arrangement is ideally suited to multigenerational living, guest accommodation or potential income-generating use.

To the first floor are four further well-proportioned bedrooms together with a modern family shower room. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted wardrobes.

Externally, the property occupies a mature and established plot with two separate vehicular accesses. The gardens provide a mature and well-established setting, with a combination of lawned areas, trees and planting contributing to the property’s sense of privacy and character.

The existing double garage and associated area currently benefit from full planning permission for the erection of a striking contemporary three-bedroom detached house. The approved scheme has been carefully designed to create a distinct and self-contained home while remaining sympathetic to the setting and character of the existing property. Importantly, the new dwelling would retain its own private access, parking and garden areas, preserving separation and functionality between the two homes.

Properties offering both substantial family accommodation and consented long-term development potential in established Horsham locations rarely become available. Flagstones therefore presents a unique opportunity for purchasers seeking not only a character home, but also future flexibility and long-term optionality.

Agents’ note: Full planning permission has been granted for the erection of a new detached three-bedroom dwelling within the grounds of Flagstones on the site of the current garage. Horsham District Council planning reference: DC/25/1634. Further details, approved plans and supporting information are available on request.
