Staddles is a Grade II listed 17th‑century cottage set on the edge of Rockbourne with a landscaped south‑facing garden of about 0.3 acre. The house retains considerable period character — exposed beams, two inglenook fireplaces and ledged doors — combined with practical updates including a redecorated kitchen/breakfast room, renewed oil tank and a new private water treatment plant (2024).
The accommodation offers four bedrooms, three reception rooms and good ceiling heights throughout, arranged over an average‑sized footprint of around 1,619 sq ft. A planning consent exists to add an en suite to the principal bedroom, which increases flexibility for family living. Parking is generous with a gated driveway, a pair of single garages and additional hardstanding suitable for a small boat or motorhome.
Important factors to note: listed status restricts alterations and may complicate future works or extensions. The property is served by oil central heating and private drainage, and council tax sits in a high band (G). The location is rural and relatively remote — excellent for countryside living but requiring a car for many day‑to‑day services; mobile signal is average.
For families seeking character, space and a large garden within easy reach of good local schools and the market town of Fordingbridge (c. 4 miles), this cottage offers a rare combination of history, privacy and outdoor space, with scope to personalise under the constraints of its listed status.
