A rare detached Grade II listed cottage on College Street, offering substantial living space, period detailing and a large walled garden close to Petersfield high street. The house currently needs refurbishment, presenting a clear opportunity to create a comfortable family home while retaining original character such as sash windows, exposed beams and fireplaces.
Accommodation includes three double bedrooms, two bathrooms, sitting and dining rooms, study, kitchen/breakfast room and a conservatory. The plot includes a purpose-built studio/outbuilding and a single garage with additional parking — unusually generous for a central town location and helpful for home-working or a hobby space.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status, which will restrict alterations and could complicate works and costs. The house is described as needing renovation rather than being move-in ready; expect refurbishment, maintenance and specialist listed-building consents. Council tax is expensive and local crime levels are recorded as high, factors to weigh alongside the property’s strengths.
For families, the location is a strong draw: walking distance to the high street, a mix of state and top independent schools nearby, and quick access to South Downs National Park. For purchasers seeking a character home with scope to add value, this is a rare town-centre opportunity with period charm and a private garden setting.
