Poplar Cottage is a spacious, characterful village home restored and extended with careful attention to period detail. The heart of the house is a bright, vaulted open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with flagstone floors, flanked by two beamed reception rooms and a large utility/boot room — accommodation that suits family life and entertaining. Grounds extend to about one third of an acre, lawned and planted with mature trees, approached by a gravel driveway providing off-street parking and access to a substantial detached, self-contained one‑bedroom annexe with integral garage.
Internally the house offers three double bedrooms and two bathrooms, with timber floors and exposed beams on the first floor and a ground-floor bedroom with an adjacent contemporary shower room. The property has been meticulously renovated, combining modern fittings with retained character features, and extends to around 2,000 sq ft overall including the annexe living space.
Practical considerations include oil-fired heating with boiler and underfloor heating, double glazing installed after 2002, and the home’s solid brick construction (original, assumed uninsulated wall build) typical of pre-1900 properties — these factors may influence running and upgrade costs. Broadband speeds are reported as slow and mobile signal is average. The location on the edge of the South Downs National Park and close to Bishop’s Waltham offers countryside walking, good schooling options and village amenities while remaining within reach of Winchester and major road links.
