Froxfield

A stylish semi detached property blending historic charm with modern convenience and offering exceptional living spaces both inside and out.

The Property - Originally built in 1740 as the stable block for The Slade, and later used as Roger Powell’s bookbinding workshop, this property boasts a rich history. It has been carefully and tastefully converted into modern accommodation, while retaining its characterful roots.

Upon entering, the entrance hall is flooded with light from floor-to-ceiling windows, and you are instantly greeted by the characterful brick and flint archway of the original stables. The space features beautiful reclaimed parquet flooring, which continues through to the kitchen. The well-appointed kitchen is fitted with wooden units and worktops and opens into the sitting/dining room, making it ideal for both family living and entertaining. The sitting room is triple aspect and a generous space with the added feature of a log burner.

Upstairs the main bedroom spans the width of the property. It has its own log burner, as well as a study/snug space. There are two further bedrooms both with access to boarded loft spaces. The family bathroom is located on the first floor, with an additional cloakroom on the ground floor.

Outside - To the front of the property there is a charming fenced garden, with a path leading to the front door. Off-set from the property there is also a larger and wonderful walled garden, originally part of the manor house orchard. This area is predominantly laid to lawn, with beautiful borders, mature trees, and an inviting outdoor seating area. There is also a double garage with a storage room above and parking for at least two cars. To the east side of the house there is a further parking space and concealed log-store. Across the lane, there is a parcel of woodland offering a peaceful retreat for relaxation or a fun space to explore.

Situation - In the heart of the South Downs National Park, the parish of Froxfield is more a collection of rural hamlets rather than just one village with High Cross at its centre which has a village primary school, large Jubilee Hall with sports clubs, church and a shop (with Post Office). Petersfield is handy with its comprehensive range of facilities. The extensive network of local lanes provides amazing walks, cycling routes and access to footpaths, ideal for any country/outdoor enthusiasts. 1 The Stables is well positioned on the eastern edge of High Cross backing on to farmland but also walking distance to the heart of the village and two local pubs, including the popular ‘No Name’ pub.

The A3 provides great regional transport links to Guildford and Portsmouth (ferry services). Chichester and Winchester are also within reach. There are well regarded state and private schools within the region, including Bedales and Churcher’s College at Petersfield, where there is also a station with scheduled services to London via the Portsmouth Harbour to Waterloo service.
