4 bedroom detached house

This delightful and remarkably light Grade
II listed cottage offers balanced and flexible
accommodation that, in the most part, is
orientated towards the south and over the
garden to rolling countryside and the valley
beyond. To the left as you enter the cottage is
the drawing room which is then complemented
by both a dining room and family room thereby
giving versatility for family life. The kitchen/
breakfast room has a good range of cabinetry
and there is a breakfast area where four can
sit with ease. There is access from here to the
garden and there is a separate utility room and
cloakroom.

From the hall, the staircase climbs to the first
floor which comprises the principal bedroom
suite where the bedroom has a striking, vaulted
ceiling and a shower room, three further
bedrooms and a family bathroom each with
views towards the gardens.

Various features such as open fireplaces,
exposed brick chimney breasts, elm beams and
oak wooden floors all contribute towards an
appealing lifestyle and all rooms benefit from
excellent natural light and good ceiling heights.

East Cholderton is a charming village which
forms part of a close-knit community of villages
including Amport and Monxton that provide an
active and vibrant community. There is a pub
in the village and nearby Amport has a well
regarded primary and junior school feeding
into John Hanson Community School. Andover,
about 4.8 miles away, and Grateley 6.8 miles
away, offer regular direct train services to
London Waterloo. The A303 is less than a mile
away and gives access to the West Country and
the national Motorway network.

Independent schools include Farleigh, Princes
Mead, Pilgrims’ and Twyford, and at senior level,
St Swithun’s, Winchester, Embley Park and
Godolphin.

The area offers plenty of recreational activities
including footpaths and bridleways and the
River Test which is renowned for its chalk
stream fishing. There are numerous golf courses
including Leckford & Longstock, Tidworth and
Winchester.

On arrival across a gravel driveway, there is a
garage and workshop of wooden construction.
From here there is a garden gate and a pathway
that leads across the garden to the front door.

The gardens are over two levels with the lower
of the two providing a decent lawned area for
children to enjoy and a smaller higher level
lawn that gives more commanding views of the
surrounding countryside. In the areas to the
northern and western end of the house, there
are lovely views across fields down into the
Pillhill Brook valley, one of the tributaries off The
River Test. There is an additional gated parking
area for two cars which accesses the lane.
