The current owner purchased the land in 1969 and subsequently had the bungalow built in the late 1970’s. The annexe was added about thirty years later and the owner ran a successful cattery business from the property for over thirty years until retiring in 2020.
In the agent’s opinion, the paddock is ideal for private equestrian use and there is a concrete base in situ from an old stable yard which has scope to be reinstated, subject to any necessary permissions. A gateway at the bottom of the paddock opens directly onto a bridleway giving access to many miles of hacking through the surrounding countryside.
The property is set in a beautiful historically-rich part of Hampshire with a wonderful rural feel away from the hustle of larger towns yet only a short drive from Alton which has a variety of independent shops, a modern library and supermarkets including M&S Food, Waitrose and Aldi. Medstead is known for its stunning countryside surroundings and is within easy reach of the South Downs National Park. The area is served by a number of highly regarded schools and there is a mainline rail station in Alton providing direct services to London Waterloo taking just over one hour.
