Southdown House is an attractive three-bedroom Georgian cottage in the desirable village of Whiteparish, combining original character with recent updating. The former blacksmith’s home retains exposed beams, an Inglenook fireplace and other period details, while the owners have fitted contemporary kitchens and bathrooms to create comfortable family accommodation across multiple levels.
The ground floor offers a drawing/dining room with a striking inglenook, a study, a kitchen/breakfast room and a conservatory that opens onto a paved terrace. Upstairs are three double bedrooms — two with ensuites — and a well-appointed family bathroom, making the layout practical for family life and guests.
Outside there is off-road parking to the rear, a private courtyard terrace and a raised lawned garden with pleasant views towards the village church and playing fields. The village location provides easy access to good primary schools, pubs, local shops and is within commuting distance of Romsey, Salisbury and Southampton Parkway station.
Buyers should note a few practical points: the house is a solid-brick, pre-1900 build with assumed limited wall insulation, which can affect heating efficiency; council tax is described as expensive; and mobile and broadband speeds are average. Overall this is a large, characterful home that has been newly renovated and will suit families seeking village life with period charm and modern convenience.
