Property description
A charming, detached 5-bedroom cottage with a large garden located in this peaceful village, close to Alton. The house is Grade II listed and presented in extremely good order throughout and sits within a large and attractive garden extending to around 0.75 acres.
A delightfully quirky Grade II listed cottage with a wonderful fusion of contemporary design and period character providing a comfortable and versatile family home. A large modern open plan kitchen has full height sliding glass doors which draw the garden inside the house and is semi open plan to the cosy adjacent family room ideal for day to day living space. A well-proportioned beamed sitting room, with open fireplace, provides more formal entertaining space with a small hobbies room off. A good-sized study can also be used as a downstairs 5th bedroom and on a practical level, a great back entrance/boot room with part vaulted ceiling perfect for country living.
Upstairs 4 further bedrooms all have their own unique character and views with a large modern family bathroom and en suite dressing/shower room to the main bedroom. In all, a manageable house, but with space for everyone to find their own corner.
The garden is a wonderful feature of the house. Extending to around 0.75 acres and featuring large, lawn areas and an outdoor swimming pool, by the terrace at the back of the house. There are various stocked beds and 2 garden sheds. As you step through the gate from the double garage the garden has a lovely open feel. There is also a good vegetable garden and fruit cage hidden behind a yew hedge. A gravel drive also provides day to day parking by the back of the house where there is a further area of landscaped garden.
Shalden is one of Hampshire’s best kept secrets. Secluded and rural, yet remarkably accessible as many roads pass around, but not through the village. Honeycombe Cottage lies at the heart of the village inside the conservation area with fields, a working farm and neighbouring houses around. The cottage sits comfortably in a mature and well stocked English country garden at right angles to the timeless village street, where little has changed over the centuries.
Alton is within 2.75 miles for local needs and the M3 lies to the north at Odiham or Basingstoke. The A31 provides good regional transport links to Winchester or Farnham. Hampshire is well catered for with top performing state and independent schools all within the region.
