The Old Thatch has been meticulously renovated and extended by the current owners and now provides the perfect balance between period charm and suitability for modern day living. Of particular note are the excellent ceiling heights and internet access in the outbuildings as well as the house. The property sits in a tranquil, rural setting and benefits from mature gardens, a swimming pool and stunning, far-reaching views.

On the ground floor, there is a generous dining room with an inglenook fireplace, which leads through into the kitchen. Off the kitchen is a utility/boot room with access into the garden. On the other side of the house is a cosy sitting room with an inglenook fireplace and doors opening into the garden, and a snug with its own bathroom, which could be an occasional fifth bedroom. There are four double bedrooms on the first floor, one of which has an en suite wet room and Juliet balcony, and a family bathroom.

The property is approached via a five bar wooden gate which leads through to a large gravel driveway. At the side of the property is a large outbuilding that has been converted into a games room with its own shower room.

The gardens are an extremely special part of the property, they comprise flat lawns, a swimming pool, mature trees and shrub borders, and give-way to sensational rural views over rolling Hampshire countryside. At the rear of the pool area, there is a large summer house which provides a delightful area for a home office or entertaining over the summer months.


The Old Thatch sits in a delightful country setting on the fringes of Blackmoor, a sought-after rural hamlet situated within the South Downs National Park. Blackmoor itself has a church and a village hall with more extensive shopping facilities available in the in nearby villages. Selborne has a village shop, an excellent pub, Art gallery and the renowned Gilbert White museum. Liphook, Petersfield and Haslemere provide a much wider range of shopping and recreational facilities as well as mainline stations which provide a direct service into London Waterloo.

Communications in the area are excellent, with the A3 only a short distance away providing fast and direct access to London as well as the M25 and the international airports of Gatwick, Heathrow and Southampton.

Sporting facilities are excellent with racing at Goodwood and Fontwell, polo at Cowdray Park as well as sailing off the south coast at Chichester. One of the most special elements about this stunning Hampshire location is the excellent opportunity for walking and riding, with many miles of beautiful rolling countryside on the doorstop.
