1 Brook Cottages is Grade II Listed and the quintessential Hampshire cottage which also overlooks the River Meon. The sympathetic use of materials, intelligent interior design and appealing colour palettes as part of the recent re‐build provides a compelling lifestyle.

Well proportioned rooms, good ceiling heights and a partially galleried landing also contribute to the appeal. Most of the original internal beams, an inglenook fireplace, cottage style windows and doors ensure that the original character of the property has been preserved where possible.

There is a large, boarded loft defined into two areas and accessible from a full staircase. Currently one side provides office space and the other a dressing room. It is believed that dormer windows at the rear could be permitted in this loft, subject to the necessary consents, thereby formalising these as habitable rooms and possibly bedrooms.

A delightful established and enclosed garden with mature shrubs and trees, paths, hedging, vegetable garden and even an ancient herb garden area is at the rear of the property and can be accessed from the house and from the side of the garden via a garden gate.

There are views out towards open countryside and up towards Park Hill. The front of the cottage looks out over the River Meon, a village green space and picturesque village houses opposite.

The guide price is £715,000.
