Set in the heart of East Meon, this Grade II listed thatched cottage combines 16th-century character with generous, flexible living spaces. Recently re-thatched and occupying a large, level plot, the house offers far-reaching rural views, a modern double garage with solar roof tiles, and off-road parking—ideal for family life in the South Downs National Park. No forward chain speeds a sale for a buyer ready to move in.
Internally the layout suits a family: a large principal bedroom with en suite and roll-top bath, two further bedrooms, optional fourth bedroom/guest room, and two bathrooms. Period features — exposed beams, inglenook fireplaces with log burners and mullioned-style windows — give the home authentic character while multiple reception rooms and a garden room provide practical living and working spaces.
Important practical points are clear: the property is Grade II listed, which will restrict alterations and may complicate extensions or major works. Vehicular access is via a narrow country lane and council tax is noted as quite expensive. The plot is large and well screened, offering privacy and scope for sympathetic improvements subject to consents.
East Meon village provides everyday amenities, good primary schooling and countryside pursuits on the doorstep. Petersfield’s shops and mainline station are within easy reach, making this a convenient country family home with strong school options nearby.
