Accessed via a secure gated entrance, the development enjoys a peaceful setting, combining the charm of village life with excellent access to nearby towns and transport links. Colgate is a highly desirable village, surrounded by beautiful Sussex countryside and offering a wonderful sense of community. At its heart is The Dragon, a popular traditional village pub, alongside Colgate Primary School, a village Church and the Village Hall. For those who enjoy the outdoors, the nearby St Leonard's Forest provides miles of picturesque footpaths and bridleways, ideal for walking, cycling and exploring the surrounding countryside. Despite its rural feel, Colgate is conveniently positioned approximately 4 miles from Horsham, with its excellent selection of independent shops, restaurants, cafés and leisure facilities. Crawley is also within easy reach, while nearby Cottesmore Golf & Country Club offers further sporting and recreational opportunities. For commuters, the village is well placed for access to the A264, A23 and M23, providing convenient routes towards Gatwick Airport, London and the South Coast. Faygate Station is approximately 1.5 miles away, while Three Bridges Station offers regular services into London. The surrounding area is also well served by a selection of highly regarded schools, including Colgate Primary School, Cottesmore School and Handcross Park School. Overall, Vicarage Close offers an appealing balance of peaceful village living, beautiful countryside and excellent connectivity, making it an ideal setting for families looking to enjoy a more relaxed pace of life without sacrificing everyday convenience.

GROUND FLOOR

The front door opens into a welcoming Entrance Hall, which immediately gives a sense of the space on offer, with a staircase rising to the First Floor and doors opening to the principal Ground Floor rooms. Undoubtedly one of the standout features of this home is the superb 16'1 x 15'11 Kitchen Breakfast Room, which has been stylishly refitted with a contemporary range of high-gloss white units, complemented by contrasting work surfaces and a selection of integrated appliances, including twin eye-level ovens. At the centre of the room is a substantial Island, incorporating an induction hob and Breakfast Bar, creating a wonderful space for informal dining, entertaining friends or simply catching up with family at the end of the day. There is also plenty of room for additional seating, while bi fold doors open directly onto the Rear Garden, allowing the Kitchen to connect effortlessly with the outside space during the warmer months. Conveniently positioned alongside the Kitchen is the 15'11 x 10'4 Dining Room, which comfortably accommodates a large family dining table and benefits from a pleasant outlook over the Garden. Its position next to the Kitchen makes it ideal for both everyday family meals and more formal occasions, while the layout offers exciting potential for anyone looking to create an even larger open-plan Kitchen/Dining space in the future, subject to any necessary consents. The property also benefits from two further Reception Rooms, providing the flexibility that is so important for modern family living. The impressive 18'1 x 11'9 Living Room is a wonderfully proportioned space, with plenty of room for large sofas and additional furniture. A large window and glazed doors overlooking the Rear Garden fill the room with natural light, creating an inviting space to relax or entertain. To the front of the house is a separate 11'8 x 7'10 Snug, which is currently arranged as a cosy additional Sitting Room. This versatile space would work equally well as a Children's Playroom, Television Room or a quiet retreat away from the main Living Room, allowing different members of the family to enjoy their own space. Completing the Ground Floor accommodation is a useful 11'7 x 5'9 Utility Room, providing additional storage, worktop space and facilities for laundry appliances, helping to keep the main Kitchen free from everyday clutter. There is also a conveniently positioned Ground Floor WC, together with access to the substantial Double Garage, which provides excellent storage and practical space for a busy family. 

FIRST FLOOR

The sense of space continues upstairs, where a generous Galleried Landing provides access to the Bedrooms and Bathrooms. The layout is particularly well suited to family living, offering Five Double Bedrooms, a separate Study or potential Sixth Bedroom, three Bath/Shower Rooms and excellent built-in storage. The impressive 15'1 x 14'7 Principal Bedroom is a particularly generous room, with three windows fitted with attractive plantation shutters allowing plenty of natural light to fill the space. There is ample room for a large double bed and additional furniture, while a range of built-in wardrobes provides excellent storage without compromising the generous proportions. The Principal Bedroom also benefits from its own En Suite Shower Room. Bedroom Two is another excellent Double Bedroom, measuring 13'0 x 10'8, and benefits from built-in wardrobes and its own En Suite Shower Room. This makes it particularly appealing for older children, visiting family or guests who would appreciate having their own facilities. A particularly useful feature is the separate Study, which could also serve as a Sixth Bedroom if required. Measuring approximately 7'8 x 6'5, this is an ideal space for anyone working from home, providing a dedicated room away from the main living accommodation. Alternatively, it could be used as a Nursery, Dressing Room or additional storage space. Completing the First Floor is the stylishly refitted Family Bathroom, which has been finished in a contemporary style and incorporates a bath, separate shower enclosure, wash hand basin with vanity storage and WC. Together with the two En Suites, this provides excellent facilities for a busy household, particularly during those busy school and workday mornings.

Overall, this is a substantial and versatile Detached Family Home, with a thoughtfully arranged layout that provides space for families to spend time together, alongside plenty of separate rooms for work, relaxation and privacy. With its Five/Six Bedrooms, three Reception Rooms, three Bath/Shower Rooms and impressive Kitchen Breakfast Room, the accommodation is ideally suited to the demands of modern family life, all within an exclusive gated development in one of the area's most attractive village settings.

OUTSIDE

To the front, this attractive Detached Family Home enjoys an impressive approach, with a generous Driveway providing off-street parking for several vehicles and leading to the Integral Double Garage, which measures 17'3 x 16'8. The frontage is beautifully maintained, with established hedging, shrubs and attractive planting creating a welcoming first impression, while the property's traditional brick elevations add to its kerb appeal. To the rear is a particularly attractive and private Garden, which has been thoughtfully landscaped to provide a wonderful space for both relaxing and entertaining. A standout feature is the extensive paved terrace, which stretches across the rear of the house and provides plenty of room for a large outdoor dining table, barbecue and comfortable seating. With doors opening directly from the house, this is a fantastic setting for summer gatherings and enjoying the warmer months. Beyond the terrace, the Garden has been laid with artificial lawn, providing an attractive, low-maintenance space that can be enjoyed throughout the year. Established trees, mature shrubs and well-stocked borders surround the Garden, offering an excellent degree of privacy and creating a lovely green outlook. Tucked away towards the rear is a charming timber gazebo, providing another sheltered spot from which to enjoy the surroundings. What makes this Garden particularly special is the beautiful woodland backdrop, with mature trees rising beyond the rear boundary and creating a wonderfully leafy, peaceful setting. This impressive natural backdrop, combined with the thoughtfully designed entertaining spaces and easy-to-maintain lawn, makes the Garden a real highlight of this superb family home.
