Situation Old Park lies approximately 1 mile to the south of the village of Rusper and approximately 3 miles to the north of the centre of Horsham. The surrounding area is a mixture of farmland and woodland with the benefit of easy access to A-roads and the motorway network, both north and south, giving links to London and the south coast, with Gatwick a short journey away. There is a selection of nearby excellent schools, such as; Cottesmore, Christ’s Hospital and Farlington. Sporting facilities include golf at Rusper, Cottesmore, Mannings Heath and the West Sussex Golf Club in Pulborough. The Property Old Park is a fine example of Georgian architecture and now represents an attractive and comfortable family home with a range of versatile outbuildings including secondary accommodation. Dating, we believe, to the early 19th Century the property is rendered with a hipped-slate roof, recently replaced, with brick chimney stacks. With versatile living accommodation on the ground floor via a series of well-proportioned reception rooms, coupled with spacious accommodation to the first floor, Old Park serves as a generous, light and beautifully-maintained home. Adjacent to the house itself is an enclosed, part-cobbled courtyard comprising staff accommodation in the form of a 2-bed cottage, a range of outbuildings which are used predominately for storage, and a highly versatile games barn with attached office. There is also the added benefit of a double garage with attached studio. Gardens and Grounds The house is approached via a gated entrance leading to a gravel driveway to the front of the house. The grounds are laid mainly to lawn with far-reaching views across open farmland to the east. There is also an attractive rose garden and well-maintained hedges and borders, together with a tennis court and an outdoor swimming pool – both in need of attention.
