Tenure: Freehold
A charming two-bedroom character cottage situated on the southern edge of the picturesque village of St. Mary Bourne. The traditional thatched cottage is Grade II listed, dating back to the 18th century and offering countryside views from its peaceful position alongside a quiet country road.
Though the detached property offers a wealth of original features, including attractive ‘eyebrow’ dormer windows and exposed beams throughout, it has been improved for modern living with highlights including the well-appointed kitchen and a south-facing conservatory set within the gardens. Internally the property is well presented in a traditional country style.
The ground floor accommodation comprises dining room, sitting room with large inglenook fireplace, a delightful kitchen with range cooker and a bathroom also with shower. The first floor has two double bedrooms and a second fabulous bathroom with seating area, which has potential to serve as a dressing room.
Situation
St. Mary Bourne is an idyllic English village in the Bourne Valley renowned for its many period thatched properties and the surrounding pretty countryside. It has previously been included as one of the Sunday Times’ most-sought after villages in England and Wales and is situated in a conservation area. Within the village there are two pubs, a primary school and a convenience store, with a wider selection of amenities available in Andover (5 miles distant). The cathedral city of Winchester is 15 miles and has high street stores, a theatre and excellent schooling. There is a mainline rail station at Whitchurch (3.5 miles) which provides a fast service to London Waterloo, whilst Newbury has a fast service to Paddington. The A303, A34 and M4 motorway are all within easy reach.
Outside
A gravel driveway leads up to the house and provides ample parking, with space also available within the detached garage. The garage also features a useful utility space, a shower and an attached cloakroom with w.c. The garden has a favourable south-easterly aspect benefitting from open country views to the front, best enjoyed from the elevated lawn. At the rear there is a separate conservatory/summerhouse, while to the front of the property there is a charming cottage-style garden with a variety of colourful bedding plants and climbers.
Additional Information
SERVICES: Mains water, electricity, drainage. Oil-fired central heating.
