4 bedroom detached house

Segars Farm incorporating Paddy's Barn is a wonderful opportunity to purchase a smallholding set within just under 10 acres. The farmhouse is grade II listed and being sold as one lot and has planning permission to combine the two properties. (Barn and farmhouse as one dwelling).

There are some charming features including exposed beams in both the dining room and sitting room. To the side of the house is a country-style kitchen which includes an Aga and room for a breakfast table. Upstairs are four bedrooms and a family bathroom. Adjoined to the house is a wonderful barn (Paddy's Barn) with a vaulted sitting room, kitchen with flagstone floor, and two further bedrooms. In addition to the main house are outbuildings which are made up of barns, stores, a garage, stables and a workshop.

The facilities for the equestrian elements of the property include seven Windsor stables with generous 12x12 proportions, mains electricity, and water tap. The four paddocks have good quality stock fencing with an electric top wire facility, and hedges. One paddock is currently used for schooling and jumping. All the paddocks are mains connected for water with twin self-filling troughs and a number of standpipes. The land is level, drains well, and has rich soil with natural herb-rich grazing. In the entrance yard, there is a three bay barn with storage for hay, bedding, and vehicles. The stable yard and entrance yard have hard standings for horse trailers and boxes.

The property is approached via a gravel driveway to the farm and a path leads through the front garden to the entrance of the farmhouse. There is a rear terrace for outdoor entertaining which takes advantage of the far-reaching views over the South Downs. The accompanying land is made up of 9.1 acres of grazing, divided into four paddocks currently used for the owner's horses. There is a short river frontage of Segars Canal which is a tributary of the River Itchen.

Nearby Winchester provides a more extensive range of amenities with direct trains to London Waterloo in about an hour from both Shawford and Winchester railway stations. There is a good range of well-regarded private schools in the area including the renowned Twyford Prep School, which is very close by, Winchester College, St Swithun's, Prince's Mead and The Pilgrims' School, as well as Peter Symonds Sixth Form College in Winchester. Twyford Primary School and The Westgate Secondary School are the catchment area schools.
