Character cottage with vaulted kitchen-diner, landscaped garden and village location.
Detached four-bedroom cottage with period beams and restored fireplaces
A characterful four-bedroom detached cottage rethought for modern family life, set in peaceful Binsted within the South Downs National Park. Recent refurbishment has refreshed interiors throughout: new carpets, lighting and radiators, a stylish family bathroom and a sociable vaulted kitchen-diner with Rangemaster and log burner. The layout offers genuine flexibility with three reception rooms, a utility room and off-street parking for at least two cars.
Day-to-day living centres on the open-plan vaulted kitchen/dining/living space with bi-fold doors to the landscaped garden, plus a cosy snug with an original working fireplace. The separate sitting room, with its own external access, would suit home working, hobbies or potential annexe use. Upstairs are four double bedrooms; the main bedroom benefits from a balcony and fireplace (currently capped), while useful landing storage keeps bedrooms neat.
The cottage sits in a friendly hamlet with a village pub, recreation ground and a “Good” primary school within walking distance. Fast broadband and low local crime make this well-situated for commuters and families — Alton, Farnham and Bentley stations are nearby for direct trains to London. Note: council tax is described as quite expensive and mobile signal is average, despite fast broadband. This is a largely move-in-ready home for buyers seeking period character with contemporary convenience.
