Sutton Scotney is a popular village with good local amenities and, best of all, has an easy run into Winchester. Surrounded by pretty villages with a network of footpaths between fields, through countryside and alongside streams and rivers, this is an idyllic location to bring up a family and to enjoy a country lifestyle without being too far from civilisation.

This detached newly built cottage is well designed with a spacious sitting room, complete with wood burning stove, and bi folding doors to a lovely decked area on the western side; and an open plan kitchen/dining room on the other side of the entrance hall with glazed doors on the easterly aspect to the garden.

A third room on the ground floor is ideal as a study or additional bedroom and there is also an adjacent shower room.

Upstairs are two double bedrooms and the main bathroom.

Outside there is off road parking and an enclosed garden with a raised deck looking across the garden with trees as a backdrop.

This is a wonderfully light house and although is complete and ready to move in to, it is also a blank canvas and so represents an opportunity for the purchasers to make their own mark. The garden is particularly appealing with east and west facing aspects which could be enclosed by hedging to create private spaces and with additional planting for interest. This could be a fascinating project and one to highly personalise the outside space at this new cottage.

The cottage falls within catchment for South Wonston Primary School, just the next village along, and Henry Beaufort Secondary School on the edge of Winchester.
