6 bedroom character property for sale

Situated literally in the heart of this most sought-after village, a spaciously deceptive stunning Grade II listed village house with origins dating back to the 17th Century.

My clients acquired the property in 2022 with the previous owners having carried out a meticulous extensive renovation project on the property both internally and externally to an extremely high standard to now offer exquisite accommodation with an abundance of character features retained throughout the well-planned and generously proportioned accommodation. My clients have recently carried out decorative works throughout the property. The main property extends to over 3700 square feet and comprises six bedrooms, all of double proportions, and four reception rooms, all with gloriously high ceilings; the Lounge is stunning with a vaulted ceiling, inglenook fireplace with a newly installed log burner and a minstrel's galley. In addition, there is a pretty self-contained annexe which comprises a kitchen with Aga, bathroom, sitting room and first floor bedroom. The main Kitchen was refitted by John Lewis and has two sinks, an extensive range of cupboards with integral appliances to include Miele dishwasher, oven, gas hob and integral fridge. The property also benefits from a tandem integral garage with parking for two vehicles in front of the garage. Externally, the gardens were landscaped by Hambrooks with a bespoke poured resin terrace, steps lead up to two further terraces with well-stocked beds and a stunning feature pond. External lighting is also present throughout the garden as well as outdoor sockets and tap.

The property is situated within easy level walking distance of the villages range of amenities which include, convenience stores, hairdressers, jeweller's and wine garden, butchers, post office, take away, pubs, cafe, doctors surgery and a church. The village is conveniently located for the excellent A/M27 road networks and for public transport links with bus stops in the village and train stations at Fareham and Southampton Parkway; the latter with links to London Waterloo in under an hour. Sailing enthusiasts will be drawn to the close proximity to Hill Head beach and The Solent as well as the River Hamble with its world renown sailing facilities. Nature lovers will enjoy the proximity to Titchfield Haven, some 369 acres of woodland and natural wetlands offering a wide variety of wildlife and birdlife. The area also boasts a range of horse-riding facilities for equestrian enthusiasts.
