A handsome and welcoming detached family house standing close to the heart of the village with gardens and grounds (including a paddock) of about 1.2 acres. Long Sutton is a beautiful village with a well-regarded primary school, Lord Wandsworth College, All Saints Church, hall and pond. The surrounding countryside provides an extensive network of footpaths and bridleways.

The house takes full advantage of the setting with each of the principal rooms having a fine aspect over the surrounding grounds. Clarkes is light and bright with many of the well-proportioned rooms having multiple aspects with large windows. Three spacious reception rooms lead from the generous reception hall and provide excellent entertaining and family space. The sitting room is a wonderful twin aspect room with a fireplace and walnut flooring. The family room has a fine view over the rear garden and boen oak wood flooring. The spacious accommodation also includes a well-proportioned twin aspect study that could also be a playroom. The superb L-shaped kitchen/dining/sitting room is at the heart of the house and has the benefit of double doors opening out to the garden. The kitchen is fitted with a range of bespoke cabinets and pan drawers and is set around a large island/breakfast bar together with a sink, gas hob, electric oven and microwave. Of note, there is also a utility/boot room and cloakroom to the ground floor.
There are five bedrooms and a family bathroom to the first floor including principal and guest bedroom suites. Of note, each of the bath/shower rooms have been fitted with traditional white sanitary ware with a bath and/or large showers.

The current owners have thoughtfully enhanced the interior, preserving the home’s inherent character while introducing contemporary touches. Notable features include a fireplace to the sitting room and a careful choice of flooring throughout.

Clarkes is a home of special appeal and style, offering privacy, presence and a superb village setting in rural Hampshire.

Outside
Set within approximately 1.2 acres of beautifully established grounds, the property enjoys a delightful setting with a high degree of privacy afforded by mature hedgerows. The gardens are particularly attractive in spring, when a variety of seasonal planting brings colour and interest throughout the grounds.

A generous sun terrace adjoins the kitchen/dining/sitting room and offers an ideal area for alfresco dining and entertaining while enjoying a pleasant aspect across the gardens. The grounds are enhanced by a selection of attractive mature trees, providing structure and character, while a gate gives direct access to the adjoining paddock, which backs onto open farmland and enjoys a lovely rural outlook. Combining privacy, space and a wonderful countryside setting, the gardens and grounds form a particularly appealing feature of this charming home.

The sweeping driveway approaches the front of the house, providing ample parking. The garage is discreetly positioned behind the property and is currently used as a store.
