This substantial country house dates from the 18th century and has some impressive features. Particular highlights include the fabulous entrance hall, and elegant formal drawing and dining rooms. Encompassing about four and a half thousand square feet of accommodation, this is an ideal opportunity for a family seeking a sizeable home where they can add their own personality.

The drawing room has twin south-westerly French doors opening to the garden with double doors from a fine reception hall sharing the same aspect into a conservatory. The dining room is magnificent where the feature arched windows are a dominant feature together with the superb exposed timber floor. Towards the rear of the house are the good size kitchen, scullery and pantry with associated stores across a courtyard.

The master bedroom on the first floor is a particularly grand room and this, together with the guest bedroom, enjoys exceptional views over the beautiful garden. There are four further bedrooms on this floor, a study, two bathrooms and two attic rooms above.

Set in grounds exceeding five acres Wangfield House is approached over a long gravel driveway leading to the house and outbuildings. The grounds are as much of a feature of the property as the house, with a charming swimming pool, formal gardens, an orchard, and paddock. The terrace across the rear of the house is the perfect setting for entertaining in the summer months, looking out over beautifully stocked borders. There is a large summerhouse and Victorian greenhouse included in the list of outbuildings together with a triple garage with store rooms above, a shed, barn and several stores.

Occupying a secluded and tucked away position in Curdridge there are good village amenities with a primary school, public house and village hall as focal points for the community. Botley and Wickham are both within easy reach, separated by some of Hampshire’s finest countryside.
