An attractive cottage with much charm and character situated in the heart of the highly desired Downland village of South Harting.
The Property
An attractive and stylishly presented Grade II listed village cottage of much charm and character with clunch stone and brick quoin facing elevations beneath a tiled roof. The cottage is arranged over two floors offering comfortable, light and flexible accommodation throughout and has been thoughtfully and sympathetically enhanced over recent years, restoring and revealing some delightful features including exposed timbers and clunch stone internal walls, upgrading of the kitchen and bathrooms and the installation of a double-sided woodburning stove serving both the sitting room and reception hall / snug.
Historical Note
According to historical reference, the cottage is believed to date back to the 15th Century, possibly as a modest thatched barn initially and subsequently as a Calvanist Chapel and meeting house in the 17th Century before further enlargement and adaption thereafter. The cottage has also attracted some notable previous owners including the artists, Gunning King and Lucian Paul Maze, who was considered to be the last of the post-Impressionist painters, credited for painting his friend, Sir Winston Churchill, at the cottage and for being a mentor for his artistic endeavours.
Outside
Set within attractive wrought iron railings a central gate provides access to the front door. To the side of the cottage is a private parking area for two vehicles and a covered entrance providing separate access to the cottage. The gardens are predominantly to the side and rear offering much privacy and providing various areas ideally suited for outdoor entertaining and enjoyment.
Situation
Situated on a lane in the centre of the village within easy walking distance of all village amenities and many lovely country walks, South Harting is a delightful, thriving village boasting a pub, café, school, shop and post office, two churches and various clubs and societies. The popular market town of Petersfield is 5 miles away and has a mainline station with services to London Waterloo in just over an hour and access to the A3, which provides good regional links to Guildford and the M25 beyond, and the South Coast. The area has an excellent range of schools including Bedales, Churcher’s College and Ditcham Park together with The Petersfield School and Bohunt in the state sector. The property sits in the heart of the South Downs National Park providing extensive recreational and leisure activities and The South Downs Way runs to the south of the village. The larger regional centres of Winchester, Guildford and Chichester are all within reasonable driving distance as are the harbours and creeks of the South Coast, Polo at Cowdray Park and racing at Goodwood.
