Heath Road, Petersfield, Hampshire

THE PROPERTY 78 Heath Road is a detached family house enjoying a wonderful position opposite Petersfield Heath, offering scope for updating, enlargement or possible replacement, subject to acquiring the necessary consents. The house is arranged over two floors with light, well proportioned and extremely versatile family accommodation offering four bedrooms on the first floor and three reception rooms and a study/bedroom 5 on the ground floor, with the potential to adapt the current accommodation to create a ground floor annexe, if required. The house sits well within its own generous plot and offers much potential. 

OUTSIDE The property is approached through a five bar gate and across a gravel drive, providing parking for several vehicles and access to the double garage. The front garden offers a lawned area with some floral borders and a front hedge providing a high degree of privacy. A side gate gives access to the rear garden, which is generous in size, offering a raised dining terrace beyond which the garden is predominantly lawned, fully enclosed and interspersed with various herbaceous and shrub borders. In all, the garden and grounds extend to approximately 0.38 acres (0.153 ha). 

LOCATION The house is situated on one of Petersfield's more favourable locations, enjoying a lovely position across the road from The Heath and Heath Pond and also within walking distance of the town centre. Petersfield offers a comprehensive range of shopping and recreational facilities, as well as a mainline station with train services to London Waterloo in just over an hour. The area offers an excellent range of schools including Bedales, Churcher's College, Ditcham Park in the private sector and in the state sector TPS and Bohunt. The A3 provides good regional transport links to the M25 and beyond and the larger centres of Winchester, Guildford and Chichester are all within reasonable driving distance, as are the harbours and creeks of the South Coast. The house is set in the heart of the South Downs National Park with an extensive network of footpaths in the area, providing great scope for riding and walking including the South Downs Way.
