THIS SUNDAY 7TH DECEMBER OPEN DAY 11:00 AM - 1PM
DESCRIPTION: 100 metres of an entrance onto Ludshott Common. A detached
bungalow with ample opportunity for extension and conversion. The existing floor area
includes 3 double bedrooms one with cloakroom, family bathroom with 2nd wc,
kitchen/breakfast room, wide hallway and large loft space. The property has had
previous planning permission for 2 new dwellings one on either side of the existing
dwelling, we are advised that both permissions have since lapsed.
The gardens and grounds are a feature of the property totalling in excess of 0.6 acre
and with a frontage to both Seymour and Furze Vale Roads of approx. 50 metres. The
private and level plot is well screened from both roads with established high hedging
and fencing. There is a five-bar gate opening onto the driveway with ample off-road
parking for several vehicles and detached single garage. The gardens afford timber
outbuildings including a car port and a second wide wooden gate with another
vehicular right of way from Furze Hill Road.
SITUATION:
Located in a quiet road adjacent the common in Headley Down. the village has a
convenience store plus petrol station. The adjacent village of Grayshott affords more
comprehensive shopping with nationally known supermarkets a range of independent
retailers, cafés restaurants and a public house. The A3 London to Portsmouth Road
is about 3 miles distant just beyond Grayshott. Haslemere (6 miles) offers a train
service to Waterloo in approximately 50 minutes by way of South West Trains.
Numerous beauty spots are within easy reach to include Waggoners Wells, The
Devils Punch Bowl, and the miles of National Trust land at the adjacent Ludshott
Common being only a short walk away, (from the higher parts of which you can enjoy
panoramic views over East Hampshire to the South Downs). The area has been
designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) for its wildlife, and a Special
Protection Area (SPA) for its birds. The immediate locality also enjoys specific
protection by the planning authority which restricts plot sizes to no less than 1/6th
acre, thereby preserving the density of development within the Special Housing
Area. There is sailing at Frensham Ponds and Golf is available at Liphook,
Blackmoor and Hindhead. The main airports of Gatwick and Heathrow are 50 miles
and 42 miles respectively with access to the M25 at junction 10 (25 miles). The A3 is
3 miles away affording dual carriageway road links to both London and South Coast.
This in turn provides access to the M25 at Wisley (25 miles) and both the main
airports of Heathrow (40 miles) and Gatwick (52 miles). State and private schools are
well catered for with the former well served by Oakmoor in Bordon and Bohunt at
Liphook.
Note an overage provision will be included in the sale transfer due to
historical planning permission to the grounds.

Property information from this agent
About this agent
Peter Leete and Partners was established in 1971 and now celebrating 50 years! - for other significant events in 1971 visit the link on our website. The founder who had cut his teeth running a chain of estate agents in and around the Sutton area moved out to the ‘sticks’ where his wife’s family had retired to. Initially running his business from home it soon became necessary to find premises and the old estate office on The Green at Grayshott became available (at that time in use as a hairdressers, previously a cobblers and originally the village estate office where rents were paid by local tenants). This offered an ideal office in a prominent position with adjacent free public car park (the ‘Fox and Pelican’ watering hole being located ‘at a convenient remove’ having no influence). Peter became a well-known local figure with his trademark ‘My Lord’ and ‘see you when you’re older,’ among other ‘Peterisms.’ Many enjoyed his sense of humour reflected in his old-style advertising copy (permissible prior to the introduction of the Property Misdescriptions Act 1991). A particularly memorable advert follows: "Not for the faint-hearted, a property to endow your personality upon! View with caution and whatever you do don’t view in stilettos as you will damage the floorboards which are suffering from rising damp, which is helping to drown an infestation of the death watch beetle." A stampede ensued and a sale was concluded that weekend. Peter Leete ran the office until his retirement in 2005 when the reins were handed over to his 2 sons who have continued the traditions of the firm centred on independence, impartial advice and client first principles – one might suggest traditional estate agency values largely lost in today’s world of corporate chain sales agents. The firm continues to trade from the original premises in Grayshott.
