Summary - SANDY GROUND COTTAGE ROMSEY ROAD AWBRIDGE ROMSEY SO51 0HG
5 bed 3 bath Detached
Period cottage with annex and large gardens, walking distance to village school and amenities.
Almost 0.4 acre plot with lawns, vegetable garden and fruit trees
Sandy Ground Cottage is a substantial period home set in almost 0.4 acres in the sought-after village of Awbridge. The main house, with original sections dating to the 1860s, offers four double bedrooms, an en-suite, a family bathroom and versatile ground-floor living including three reception rooms, conservatory and utility. A detached one-bedroom annex provides independent accommodation for guests or multi-generational living. The grounds are a standout: large lawns, vegetable patch, fruit trees, greenhouse, patios, sizeable outbuildings, garage and workshop — ideal for gardeners, hobbyists or practical storage.
This home blends character features (exposed beams, open fireplace, traditional proportions) with practical updates such as double glazing installed post-2002. Parking is generous via a shingled driveway. The village location delivers peaceful rural views and convenient walking access to the primary school, village hall, recreation ground and farm shop, while Romsey and transport links are within easy reach.
Buyers should note key running and servicing facts: heating is oil-fired via boiler and radiators, drainage is by septic tank, and broadband speeds are slow. Council tax sits in a higher band. The property presents clear potential for modernisation in parts and could benefit from targeted improvements to heating, connectivity and internal finishes to maximise comfort and long-term value.
Overall, the cottage will suit families or purchasers seeking a spacious, characterful rural home with guest accommodation and extensive gardens. Those prioritising low-carbon heating, fast broadband or a completely modern turnkey interior should factor in likely upgrade costs.
