A truly unique contemporary Grade II listed detached house incorporating a former church tower dating from circa 1840 with rural views.
Description
Foxcotte Tower is an exceptional and beautifully presented contemporary Grade II listed home, seamlessly blending period character with modern luxury. The property incorporates a striking former church tower dating from circa 1840 and showcases exquisite craftsmanship with its knapped, squared flint construction and elegant Bath Stone dressings. The historic tower is perfectly complemented by the stylish flint grey, square paned windows of the modern extension, creating a truly unique architectural statement. Completely reimagined, restored and thoughtfully enlarged in 2005, the property now offers generous, free flowing open plan living spaces designed for modern lifestyles.
The ground floor is particularly impressive, featuring a superb contemporary kitchen finished to an outstanding specification and designed for both cooking and entertaining with ease. This opens on to a fabulous open plan sitting/dining room with a modern wood burning stove which is a truly impressive space ideal for entertaining and relaxing with doors opening on to both front and rear terraces. A beautifully crafted stainless steel and oak staircase rises to the first floor, though the original stone stair turret also remains in place, providing charming access to the upper tower room currently used as a study and the wonderfully spacious principal bedroom with en suite. There are three further bedrooms at first floor including a guest room with en suite, the remaining bedrooms serviced by a family bathroom. Throughout the property, underfloor heating and high quality finishes underline the meticulous attention to detail that has gone into creating this remarkable home.
OUTSIDE
Approached via a wide block paved parking and turning area, the property provides an immediate sense of space and privacy. Steps lead up to a generous front terrace which connects both sides of the home and offers access to the tower entrance and the well designed formal gardens. To the rear, the gardens are an attractive feature, designed to maximise enjoyment of the surrounding open countryside. A terrace adjoining the house provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining, while a large gravelled bed with stepping stones leads the way to the garden studio. Beyond this lies an inviting lawned area bordered by mature trees and shrubs, creating a tranquil and picturesque setting ideal for relaxation.
Location
Foxcotte Tower is on the edge of the Test Valley village of Charlton which is situated to the north of Andover. The village offers a thriving community with a range of local facilities including a Tesco mini-market, Charlton Lakeside Leisure Centre, the Church of St Thomas and the Royal Oak public house.

There are very good primary schools in Abbotts Ann and Amport, and Farleigh School is situated 4 miles away at Red Rice.
