Nyes Lane, Southwater, Horsham, RH13

REF RM1298.

This home is tucked well back from Nyes Lane itself. The driveway runs between tall hedging and birch trees, leaving the house set away from the lane and screened from it.

Ground Floor
The front door opens into an entrance hall with the stairs straight ahead. The sitting room spans the front of the house, lit by a wide window with leaded detailing. It takes a full-size sofa and a TV wall comfortably, and a built-in cupboard handles the everyday clutter.

Through the archway, the kitchen/dining room runs across the back of the house. The kitchen is at one end, with a built-in oven, gas hob and space for a washing machine, and a small dining table fits at the other, right by the sliding doors to the garden.

First Floor

The principal bedroom runs the full width of the house, with two windows and room for a double bed. The second bedroom is next door to a separate study, and that extra room earns its keep: a home office, a nursery, or a place for a single bed when family visit. A bathroom completes the accommodation.

The whole house has been freshly repainted and new carpets laid throughout, so the jobs most buyers face in their first few weeks are already done. The kitchen and bathroom are ready to use as they are, and they're where your own updates would add the most value, whenever you choose to take them on.

Outside
Step out through those doors and the patio is right there, with room for a small table and chairs and the kitchen a step behind you. Stepping stones cross the lawn to the shed at the bottom, where a mature tree and the trees beyond the fence give the far end a green backdrop. It's fenced on every side, so the garden feels private and self-contained.

Parking is on the driveway at the front.

The Location
Life in Southwater centres on Lintot Square, with its shops, cafés and The Lintot pub. Southwater Country Park is 70 acres of former brickworks with three lakes, a lakeside café, watersports and the Dinosaur Island play area. The Downs Link, the old railway line between Guildford and Shoreham, runs through the village for traffic-free walking and cycling.

Southwater Infant Academy and Castlewood Primary serve the village, with secondary schools in Horsham, around three miles away. The A24 connects north to Dorking and south to Worthing, and trains run from Horsham and Christ's Hospital.
