A charming Grade II listed Georgian farmhouse in this historic Hampshire village, within easy reach of Alton, Farnham and Winchester.
The Property
A classical Georgian Farmhouse set in a timeless village street scene much enjoyed over the last 30 years as a wonderful family home. The house has space inside for a family to thrive with a good kitchen at the heart of the house, breakfast room and several well-proportioned formal reception rooms. There are further less formal rooms providing space for family to enjoy as generational needs dictate from playrooms to snugs and a study. Five bedrooms upstairs are well arranged with two staircases providing a versatile layout and two en suite shower rooms and family bathroom. Two attic rooms provide useful storage and a large cellar accessed via a secret door. There is plenty of character from inglenook style fireplaces to open fireplaces with classical surrounds and various exposed timbers. A good utility room provides space for pets and a rear boot room entrance ideal for returning from outdoor country walks.
Situation
A landmark house in this unspoilt Hampshire village. Located within the village conservation area and the South Downs National Park where not much has changed but is by no means a time warp. The village has a well-regarded local pub, tea room, shop and village school, and activities at the cricket club and village hall are within walking distance. Tourists are attracted to Jane Austen’s home in the village, and there are many wonderful country walks to explore via a network of local footpaths.
Alton is nearby with an extensive range of shopping amenities, secondary schools, sixth form college, sports centre and station serving London Waterloo. It is feasible to walk to Alton via an underpass connecting the village to the town’s outskirts. The A31 which by-passes Chawton also provides great regional road links to Winchester and Farnham and the A3 and M3 are easily accessed. There’s a wide choice of independent schools in the surrounding area.
Outside
The garden is mature, well stocked and landscaped around the house with hedges providing different rooms, areas of lawn, a private terrace behind the house and mature hedges on the village street provide privacy. A good driveway runs up the side of the house with a barn style open fronted garage with store and adjacent granary. A track leads behind the house to an open paddock which provides grazing for hobby livestock or a pony. In all a wonderful haven for children to explore or any keen gardener to also enjoy. Overall about 2.5 acres (1 ha).
