5 bedroom house

A fabulous family home with enclosed gardens, stabling, and a 5.52 acre paddock available by separate negotiation. Also a fantastic opportunity to redevelop subject to usual permissions.



HOUSE AND GROUNDS
Deep within North Hampshire's rural countryside sits Kents Farm, in Nether Wallop, a charming village set along the banks of the Wallop Brook. Enclosed by attractive walled gardens, Kents Farm has a great sense of seclusion and this country home which has brought together the old and new, offers wonderful and versatile family accommodation as well as the potential to reconfigure. The older part of Kents Farm display many characteristic features of a property of this vintage such as exposed beams and original fireplaces found within the drawing room, study and three of the five bedrooms above. Highlights include a superb south facing dining room with a veranda onto the front garden, and the warm and inviting country kitchen with an Esse stove at its heart. The kitchen links to a utility room and double garage beyond. It is here where there is a potential opportunity to reconfigure, subject to planning consent, and create a stunning large open plan kitchen and further reception rooms - the result could be striking.

The charming walled garden at the rear of Kents Farm has an array of flower beds and an enchanting scented rose clad walkway and terrace which is ideal for outside entertaining. There are five covered stables which include a store, workshop, and an area to store a lorry. The stables have been built within the main structure of the barn and provide a versatile space that could be reconfigured, subject to planning, into a variety of different uses if desired, such as ancillary accommodation, classic car storage, a party barn, indoor swimming pool or gym/studio to name a few. Attached to the stable block is a car port and finally a former forge, which provides an opportunity to create a home office, studio, or workshop. The five-acre paddock which is available by separate negotiation, is reached from a track that meanders through the garden. This area of ground is wonderfully flat so could present an opportunity to create a menage or polo field.
