This charming thatched Tudor cottage combines period character with a dramatic modern kitchen extension, ideal for families seeking village life close to Winchester. The ground floor offers a sitting room with wood-burning stove and parquet flooring, a versatile reception/ground-floor bedroom, and a light-filled kitchen/dining/family room with skylight, high ceiling and bi-fold doors. The home’s layout is flexible: two double first-floor bedrooms with exposed beams are linked by an interconnecting door and accessed via separate staircases.
Outside, the attractive rear garden extends over 100 feet with a large paved terrace and sweeping lawn—excellent for children, entertaining or potential garden projects. There is scope to create off-road parking by repurposing part of the terrace, adding practical value in this village setting. A garden studio offers extra workspace or hobby space.
Buyers should note material and running-cost considerations: heating relies on electric room heaters, the walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, glazing is secondary only, and drainage is private. Broadband is slow and there is a medium flood risk for the area. These factors may mean further upgrading and running-cost investment is required.
Positioned in a classic village with a pub, shop, church, primary school and nearby Micheldever station (approx 2.8 miles) with fast trains to London, the cottage will suit buyers who value historic character, a large garden and village community while accepting the need for energy and services upgrades. Winchester and major road links are within easy reach for commuting and amenities.
