Well located, found in the centre of it's 14 acres or so, lies the historic Ash Hill House; a substantial Grade II Listed home with incredible potential. This handsome home offers almost 4,250sqft of accommodation over three floors and yet there are natural opportunities to re-model/convert/extend (subject to the necessary local planning consents) to bring this particularly fine property into the 21st Century.
Constructed in the 17th Century with later additions (namely the classic Queen Anne style front) in the 18th Century, this house retains many rare features such as Venetian windows, chamfered beams with ogee stops, dentilled cornice, a fluted ceiling, open fireplaces... and now it is a blank canvas for another family to create their dream home for decades to come. Currently there are three reception rooms plus a study on the ground floor, four/five bedrooms and two bathrooms of the first floor and two further bedrooms along with attic stores on the top floor. The rooms over the ground and first floor are of a good size, well proportioned with excellent ceiling heights.
We love this home and all that it offers. The location is also terrific; a delightful and secluded position with all round views of Old Deer Park, gardens, paddocks and farmland. Rural walks are on the doorstep and of course the market town of Romsey and the larger commercial centres of Southampton and Salisbury are conveniently nearby. There are two drives in operation at present but the resurrection of the main drive would make a significant impact too- discuss with the agents.
There are a range of outbuildings again, in need of some investment but, offering flexibility and potential. The gardens are reasonably level whilst the paddock undulates gently. Naturally, there is room if there is an appetite for a tennis court and/or swimming pool.
Ash Hill House is a once in a lifetime acquisition and we expect significant interest. Contact Dougal Trentham or Ben Hibberd on[use Contact Agent Button] if you have any queries or would like to arrange a viewing.
Centrally located in Hampshire, Romsey is a beautiful market town surrounded by stunning countryside. With the World's most famous chalk stream (The River Test) running through it, Romsey offers bustling streets with an eclectic mix of boutique shops alongside more familiar high street retailers. There are historic buildings, Sports centres, a museum, theatre, a Waitrose superstore, Bradbeers (our independent department store), Broadlands Estate, The Romsey Rapids and Sir Harold Hillier Gardens, Mottisfont Abbey, Paultons Park and of course about 140,000 acres of New Forest National Park are all nearby. Furthermore, the area is also very well served by excellent range of schools for all age groups in both the private and public sectors.
Although we are within comfortable reach of the London airports, they are just short journeys from the airports at Southampton and Bournemouth, providing both domestic, and an increasing number of international flights. Should flying not appeal, you can always reach the continent by sea from either Portsmouth or Southampton. Both Winchester and Southampton have fast and frequent railway services to London Waterloo, with the journeys taking approximately 60 minutes.
