With classically styled architecture, a contemporary interior and a prime village location within an easy run of Winchester, you have all the ingredients for a very special home. This fabulous newly constructed village house nestles on the approach into Crawley village, and has views over this picture-perfect setting where thatched cottages and period homes jostle for attention on the lane from the duck pond, past the Fox & Hounds, up to the 12th century church.

With all the characteristics expected for a village lifestyle yet with the easy maintenance associated with contemporary technology and quality fittings this luxuriously appointed new house offers the best of both worlds.

With accommodation extending to approximately four thousand square feet radiating from a double height entrance hall there is scope here to satisfy the most demanding of families. The house has been designed with versatility in mind with an optional independent annexe or facility to work from home above the large garage with a ground floor shower room and adjacent store.

Leading off the hall in the main body of the house an informal sitting room sits on one side and a boot room on the other leading through to a covered walkway to the garage. The split level hall leads down wide oak steps where a formal drawing room has a limestone fireplace with wood burning stove and twin French doors to the south easterly terrace; a study shares the same aspect and a door opens to the ultimate open plan kitchen with dining and relaxing areas uniformly tiled but with distinct zones and bi-folding doors to the garden. The Shaker style kitchen is perfectly in keeping with the style of the house and its position and every conceivable appliance has been incorporated into the design by Winchester Kitchens. There is also a well planned utility room.

Stairs rise to a stunning galleried landing, five double bedrooms all with fitted storage and the family bathroom. Three bedrooms also have their own adjacent shower or bathrooms with particular attention paid to make the master suite luxuriously spacious and well equipped with the addition of a dressing room and superb bathroom.

The mature gardens surround the house and the lawn falls gently away, studded with a number of fine trees. Terraces have been laid with sandstone paving and there are paths and brick planters to the front and rear for interest.
