About this property

The heart of village life - a charming semi-detached thatched cottage of immense character standing in a tranquil setting.

A delightful brick and flint Grade II listed cottage set within a lovely garden close to the centre of the picturesque village of Upper Wield yet within just 6.5 miles of the market town of Alresford to the south. Also, all of the amenities of Basingstoke including Festival Place, fast trains to London and M3 motorway are to the west. The cottage is full of character and the flexible accommodation includes a pretty fitted kitchen with a terracotta tiled floor, an airy sitting room with an Inglenook fireplace and a wood burning stove and a separate and very versatile room that could be utilised as a study, dining room or occasional 3rd bedroom. The kitchen is fitted with a range of cabinets and granite work surfaces together with an electric hob with extractor over, oven, dishwasher and washing machine. The living accommodation is complemented by two bedrooms to the first floor and a bathroom to the ground floor. The bathroom is a sanctuary and has been finished with boutique sanitary ware including a bespoke basin and a double ended bath with a rain shower over.

Outside
The partially walled garden is a very special feature of the property and is primarily to the south and west of the cottage. The garden takes full advantage of the beautiful setting and has been landscaped with areas of lawn together with box hedging, fruit trees and a mature cherry. A terrace provides an ideal outdoor area for entertaining and relaxation. A private shingle driveway is approached via a five bar gate and provides space for parking. Timber shed.

Situation

The villages of Medstead and Preston Candover each have village shops and Inns as well as Primary Schools whilst the village of Upper Wield itself is set around an attractive green with a hall and ancient church with an Inn at Lower Wield. The regional towns of Alton and Basingstoke together with the Cathedral city of Winchester provide a comprehensive range of facilities as well as railway stations to London Waterloo (about 50 minutes from Basingstoke).
