Queen Street, Horsham, RH13 5AD

If you have lived in Horsham, you have probably driven past this home without ever realising it was there.

Tucked quietly away on Queen Street, this much-loved three-bedroom detached family home is just a short stroll from Horsham town centre, yet enjoys a surprisingly large and beautifully established rear garden.

Having been lovingly cared for by the same family since it was built, this 1960s home has been well maintained. Whilst the décor is now dated and the property would benefit from some modernisation, the potential here is immediately apparent.

What really stands out is the feeling of space and light, with large windows throughout and a wonderfully practical layout that already works well for family life.

Inside, there are some lovely original features waiting to be rediscovered, including the beautiful parquet flooring which flows through the hallway and into the large sitting room. The unusually wide staircase, generous landing and light-filled rooms add to the character of the house, while the sitting room enjoys views across the mature rear garden and has a feature fireplace.

The kitchen is currently fitted with traditional wooden units and an original-style gas-fired Aga, with plenty of natural light. Off the kitchen is a downstairs WC and separate pantry. Beyond the kitchen, the traditional covered side passage provides access to useful storage areas and the garden, while also offering exciting potential to extend. Subject to the necessary permissions, extending into this side area could create a wonderful, generous open-plan kitchen and dining space, with large windows or doors opening directly on to the garden - a fantastic setting for family breakfasts, entertaining friends or simply enjoying everyday life.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, including two good-sized doubles and a single, together with the family bathroom. Each room is bright and practical, with built in storage in each of the double rooms.

And then there is the garden. It is surprisingly large for such a central Horsham property, with a lawn, mature planting and established borders. A charming brick-built former piggery sits within the garden, now used as a useful store, adding an unusual piece of history to the property. The garden offers plenty of space for children to play, summer entertaining, gardening or simply enjoying a quiet afternoon outside.

The property is approached via a driveway with parking and a detached single garage, tucked discreetly behind mature planting. Despite being so close to the centre of Horsham, the house feels wonderfully private and established - one of those properties you could easily walk or drive past without appreciating what lies behind it.

The location is a real highlight. Horsham town centre is within easy walking distance, giving you the best of both worlds: a peaceful, established home with a substantial garden, while having cafés, restaurants, independent shops, the market, leisure facilities and Horsham's summer events all close by. Horsham Train Station is a 13 min walk with a direct line to – Gatwick express, London Bridge and London Victoria. For walking Denne Park is just around the corner.

This is a home where the opportunity lies beneath the surface. The important foundations are already here - a substantial detached house, beautiful parquet flooring, wonderful natural light, a large garden and genuine scope to extend.

With the right ideas, this could become a truly wonderful modern family home in a location where properties with gardens of this size are increasingly difficult to find.
