The Pink House is a handsome Grade II listed period house believed to have been built circa 1840, following the end of the Georgian period. Situated in this sought-after position in the heart of the bustling market town of Alresford, the property offers substantial accommodation of approaching 4800 sq. ft. with the addition of a garage.

The accommodation is arranged over three floors with a further benefit of a cellar and the house has a lift that runs through the centre of the building. The property is approached through a welcoming reception hall with a fine turned staircase providing access to the first and second floors. There are three principal reception rooms; a drawing room, sitting room and dining room. The dining room opens up into the kitchen, beyond the kitchen is a boot room and utility.

There are six bedrooms in the main house; a principal suite with bathroom and shower and two further first floor bedrooms with adjoining bathrooms. On the second floor there are three further bedrooms, two shower rooms and a small kitchen.

Approached from the rear courtyard, is some annexed
accommodation, currently two bedrooms, one with adjoining shower room and one with an adjoining bathroom. This area could easily be converted to create a ground floor one bedroom staff flat.

OUTSIDE
The garage is approached from Broad Street and provides parking for one vehicle. Double doors to the rear of the garage provide access to the rear courtyard. The charming rear courtyard is perfect for entertaining. A flagstone pathway leads from the courtyard, past a beautifully stocked flowerbed to the main gardens. These are in two distinct sectioned lawned and walled areas. Immediately beyond the courtyard a gate leads to the formal lawns, again walled, with a charming summer house with beautifully planted flowering shrub beds and mature trees. The gardens are a significant feature of the property and with the westerly aspect enjoy a sunny environment.
