Keepers Cottage sits in a peaceful location surrounded by beautiful, rolling countryside on the edge of the popular village of Bighton near Alresford. Approached via an electric five-bar gate, the gravel driveway leads to a generous parking area with a three-bay carport. Inside the house, the accommodation is light and spacious and there are stunning views of the grounds and the neighbouring countryside from every window. The majority of the ground floor is made up of an open-plan kitchen, dining, family room with bespoke cabinetry, electric AGA and a wood burner. This in turn leads into the southerly-facing sun room, which overlooks the beautifully maintained gardens, and a boot room, both of which give access to the outdoor terrace and veranda. There is also a comfortable sitting room with a wood burner, and a downstairs cloakroom. Upstairs, the principal bedroom has an en suite bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe. There are three further double bedrooms on this floor, two of which have built-in wardrobes, and a large family bathroom and an additional shower room.

Outside, there is a detached office with adjoining store next to the house offering an ideal space to work from home. The remaining outbuildings comprise a three-bay carport, a stable block with three stables, a tack room and an open-fronted store, and an adjoining workshop and barn. There are solar panels on the roof of this building which generate an income under the FIT payment scheme, therefore significantly reducing the energy costs of the property.

The grounds total approximately 1.96 acres and are made up of beautifully landscaped, southerly-facing gardens, which are planted for year-round interest, and a series of paddocks. There are several patio areas ideal for outdoor entertaining and mature boundaries offering privacy.


Bighton has a popular pub, village hall and playground. The village is situated in beautiful rolling countryside near the Georgian market town of Alresford, which provides an array of shops, restaurants and cafes. The A31 provides a good link to the cathedral city of Winchester and to Alton, both of which have excellent amenities including mainline stations to London Waterloo. The M3 motorway and the A3 give excellent access to London, Gatwick, Heathrow and the M25 and the national motorway network and in a southerly direction to the International Airport at Southampton. There is superb range of schools including St Swithuns School for Girls, Winchester College, Bedales, Prince's Mead, Twyford and Ropley C of E Primary School.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on June 9, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on June 9, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on May 30, 2023 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
