Believed to date back to the 17th century this charming home in a hamlet near Denmead has been superbly extended to create a more contemporary wing whilst retaining period features in the original cottage and taking influences through to the newer part. Enjoying a lovely position on the edge of the South Downs, Winchester and Petersfield are both within half an hour’s drive.

The accommodation is well proportioned, leading off a spacious dining hall which is part of the original cottage and has exposed timbers and an open fire. A study leads off to one side and one of the four bedrooms is accessed from here which has its own shower room.

The kitchen has been beautifully fitted with a range of cream units with granite work surfaces and a hardwood floor upon which there is space for a central table and chairs. The sitting room is a superb space with a wood burning stove set in a brick fireplace and bi folding doors open into a large conservatory.

A stained glass window lights the stairwell and landing which has doors to three further bedrooms, each with masses of storage. One of the larger bedrooms has an adjacent dressing room or nursery and there is a family bathroom on this floor.

A detached double garage provides secure parking and has an adjoining utility room. Pleasant gardens surround the cottage on all sides where lawns run to pretty borders and various seating areas have been created to enjoy the sun through the summer months. The garden overlooks a neighbouring paddock on one side creating a feeling a space in this lovely location on the edge of the South Downs.
