Liss Forest

LOCATION: This wonderful home is situated in a tucked away position at the far end of a private track in Liss Forest. Liss Forest is a quiet hamlet sited within the South Downs National Park, with acres of open countryside and extensive forests on the doorstep and with many miles of public pathways and bridleways to explore. There is a well-regarded village pub within a comfortable walk, whilst the neighbouring village of Liss is approximately 1 mile away and provides shops for all day-to-day needs, a mainline railway station (Portsmouth Harbour to London Waterloo) and schools for infants and juniors.

The A3 bypasses the village providing quick access to the south coast and also to the M25 and London to the north. The opening of the Hindhead tunnel has enhanced the attraction of this sought-after location, often enticing those wishing to move out from the traditional commuter belt and suburbs but still being able to return there for work. The other nearby towns of Petersfield, Liphook, Alton and Haslemere are all easily accessible and offer good shopping facilities plus a choice of comprehensive schools as well as a great selection of private schools.

DESCRIPTION: Approached via a private track that is accessed off from Forest Road, the property has a front garden that has the feel of an oasis thanks to mature planting and an ornamental fish pond. There is a block-paved driveway that leads down one side of the property to a 9 metre garage/workshop, which provides parking for several vehicles and rear access to the garden. A covered porch offers protection for the front door which opens into a well-proportioned entrance hall. There are stairs to the first floor, a downstairs cloakroom and doors to the kitchen and the sitting/dining room. The sitting/dining room is triple aspect with a large picture window to the front overlooking the ornamental pond and French windows to the rear opening out to a covered seating area. There is an open fireplace as well as a serving hatch through from the dining area to the kitchen. The kitchen itself is well-equipped and features a matching range of floor and wall mounted cupboards and drawers, a generous amount of work surface for food preparation, an integrated gas hob with extractor hood above, oven and grill, and a dishwasher. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine and American style fridge/freezer. A separate door opens out the driveway area.
Upstairs there is a good size landing area with doors to the three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The third bedroom is currently used as a study and is front aspect. Bedrooms one and two are both doubles, with a light a bright feel. The family bathroom is rear aspect and has a matching suite of bath with shower over, WC and wash basin. There is also an airing cupboard.

Outside there is access around the property with plenty of scope for storage. In contrast to the front garden, the rear garden has a more open feel with an area of lawn, a rockery, rose beds and scope for a vegetable patch. There is a paved area for outside entertaining and a garden room for hobbies and gaming (currently set up with a pool table and dart board). There is a small workshop and timber playhouse. In addition to these outbuildings is an impressive 9 metre garage/workshop which is cavity brick built and features ample electrical points, an extraction unit and additional storage within the pitched roof.
