This detached 17th‑century cottage combines authentic period charm with modern comforts, set within generous, landscaped gardens in the South Downs National Park. Exposed oak beams, a large brick fireplace with a cast‑iron wood burner, and a cosy sitting room create warm, characterful living spaces. The insulated summer room with panoramic garden views extends year‑round living and provides a relaxed family reception.
Practical living is well considered: a large kitchen/diner forms the social heart of the house, there’s a downstairs shower room, an upstairs family bathroom, a home office with a garden‑facing bay window, and a substantial integral garage with driveway parking. A detached insulated studio (5m x 3m) in the garden offers a creative retreat or flexible ancillary space. Double glazing and modern heating elements reduce immediate upgrade needs.
The plot is a major asset — mature landscaping, a patio with brick BBQ, decked seating beside a stocked pond and raised lawns create private outdoor rooms for children, pets and entertaining. Petersfield’s schools, community and rail links make this location suited to families and commuters who value countryside living with practical connectivity.
As a converted pair of cottages with subsequent sympathetic extensions, the house retains historic fabric but will require ongoing maintenance typical of period buildings (joinery, stone/flint repairs, and periodic servicing of wood burners). Buyers seeking a largely move‑in character home with scope for further personalised updating will find strong appeal here.
