A rare opportunity has arisen in the very heart of Alresford to acquire a highly desirable apartment within a period building which has more than a touch of opulence. The former Old Stag Inn lies at the furthest reaches of Broad Street and the apartment takes over the whole of the first floor. This character home is packed with delightful features with wide planked floorboards, sash windows, period fireplaces including an open fire in the sitting room, cast iron radiators and good ceiling heights which are perfect for the current owner’s chandeliers.

The apartment is accessed via its own entrance on the ground floor into a good size hallway from where stairs rise to the first floor. Both reception rooms are spacious with the dining room leading through to the fitted kitchen which has plenty of storage and built-in appliances.

Two double bedrooms both have fitted wardrobes and cast iron fireplaces, and the large bathroom is stunning with a roll top bath and heritage style fittings perfectly in keeping with the strong Georgian influenced decoration.

Towards the rear of the building is a parking space and access to a cellar.

Alresford is a beautiful Georgian town known for its variety of independent shops, restaurants and inns located in stunning surroundings on the edge of the South Downs National Park. Attractions include the Watercress steam railway, schools for infant, junior and secondary education, several churches and an active and inclusive community. The cathedral city of Winchester is about seven miles away and there is easy access to the south coast, the midlands and London via the road network. There is also mainline rail access to London from both Winchester and Alton. Southampton airport is only about half an hour away.
