6 bedroom detached house

A particularly impressive home of about 6250sqft, complimented by almost 13 acres of parkland grounds including both a golf course and tennis court.

Sharpes Farm is classic period cottage, a converted 18th Century barn and 21st Century contemporary extension, married together with great styling and a super vibe throughout. What a successful amalgamation of old and new- period features fused with more modern luxuries. For those that like entertaining it will hit the right note; there is a 650sqft kitchen/dining room/family room with floor to ceiling glazed sliding panels to the extensive rear terrace, the living room in the barn is yet another phenomenal space- plenty of natural light and a great sense of volume due to the vaulted ceiling and period timbers. For me, what I particularly enjoyed was the setting and, the lifestyle it provides that very few are lucky enough to experience. The tennis court has hosted tournaments whilst the golf course (known as Royal St David's, Braishfield) hosts the annual Braishfield Open where some exhilarating dramas have played out. Its meticulous design involves tight fairways, perilous grass bunkers, marsh land and tricky greens that have challenged some of golf's greatest local players. The 3 greens layout can be played in 3 different ways resulting in a 9 hole, Par 31 course.

The property offers enormously versatile accommodation which can be adapted in any number of ways. The grounds also have something for everyone- aside from the tennis court and golf course, there are wild flower meadows, a woodland, fruit tree orchard, walled garden, vegetable patch, Alitex greenhouse, pond and hot tub area. The garden is a delight- currently plenty of colour and scent and there are numerous seating areas to follow the Sun around throughout the day if you wish.

Sharpes Farm is a highly unusual property with a most amazing 'feel', with incredible grounds and in a privileged Test Valley village location... a viewing is naturally recommended.

Braishfield, a small village to the north-west of Romsey, is quietly situated and provides facilities to include two public houses, junior school, village hall and popular village shop. Schools for all ages, both state and private, are readily available. The larger centres of Romsey and Winchester are both within a 20 minute drive, with the city of Southampton about 8 miles distant.
