5 bedroom house

The home adjoins and overlooks undulating countryside, broken up with shelter belts and hedging, and has views of the Wallop Brook across the water meadow.
The accommodation is extremely well proportioned, has great versatility in its use between the number of reception rooms and bedrooms. There is a suite on the ground floor ideal for an elderly relative, and the majority of the rooms have long views over the adjoining countryside.
The house is approached by a long private driveway which continues to a blocked paved section in front of the house and continues up to the outbuildings. There is a four bay barn which has weather boarded elevations under a hipped tiled roof. Three bays are enclosed with double doors, perfect for garaging/workshop and stairs lead up to a vaulted first floor room over with four Velux windows. Subject to planning it would be perfect as ancillary accommodation or a home office.
Adjoining is a 3-bay pole barn currently used for the storage of agricultural machinery. The mature grounds are principally lawned part of which could be used to create a paddock. Close to the house and partly sheltered by a magnificent broad leaf tree there is a strategically placed circular terrace perfect for alfresco dining looking up the valley. On the upper garden is another sitting area and also a set of steps leading to a balustrade balcony which provides access to the first floor sitting room. There are shrub and herbaceous borders, timber garden tool shed, vegetable garden and greenhouse. There is also an orchard. The gardens adjoin and overlook open countryside and the valley beyond. In all about 1.75 acres. There is the option to purchase or rent a further acre of land beyond the orchard through negotiation with the landowner.
